Silenced by Abuse to Finding My Voice with Cat Dunn

What if the very thing you were told to keep quiet about… is the story that sets someone else free? In this episode of the Legacy Building Mamas Podcast, I sit down with Cat Dunn — award-winning OBM, mentor, speaker, and host of Life After I Left. Cat shares how starting her business while in an abusive relationship became the lifeline that reconnected her to the world — and ultimately, to herself.Now a powerful voice for women reclaiming their worth, Cat helps others rise from silence — whether it's domestic violence, generational conditioning, or outdated business expectations. This conversation goes beyond business — it’s about truth, liberation, and remembering who you are beneath everything you were told to be. If you’ve ever felt stuck, unseen, or unsure of your next step — this one’s for you.⏱️ Chapter Breakdown:00:00   Welcome to Legacy Building Mamas — why this podcast exists02:15     Cat’s journey: from corporate and musical theatre to OBM and mentor07:01     The real reason Cat started her business — and how it saved her08:55     Breaking the silence: why women’s stories need to be heard13:00     From failed launch to purpose-led mentorship: finding her right audience20:45    Systems, strategy & starting messy — why you don’t need it all figured out25:16    Trust your gut: the power of inner knowing in business & life29:46    The turning point: choosing herself and reclaiming her voiceShare this episode with a woman you love — because you never know who’s waiting to hear that she’s not alone.🌐 Connect with Cat:InstagramFacebookLinkedinWebsite🎙️ Listen to her podcast Life After I Left for more real talk and rising.https://open.spotify.com/show/1JAVM3GiFkqWeCc81W86NS 👉 And if this episode moved you, leave us a review — your words help more mamas find their voice too.🎙️ Love This Episode?✅ Share it on Instagram and tag: https://www.instagram.com/evelynlopezdelon/✅ Leave a review on your favorite podcast platform.✅ Send it to a fellow mumpreneur who needs this inspiration.Your support helps us bring more empowering conversations to women like you. 💕Stay inspired and learn more about building your business: 🎥 Subscribe to My YouTube Channel:👉 https://www.youtube.com/@legacybuildingmamas/videos Connect with me on Instagram: 👉https://www.instagram.com/evelynlopezdelon/
