About this episode
In this deeply moving and courageous episode, Kelly chats with Yolanda Henson, a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, to share her powerful story of survival, resilience, and advocacy. Yolanda opens up about the horrific abuse she endured as a child in Mexico—allegedly suffering sexual abuse at the hands of her uncles and verbal and physical mistreatment from her grandmother. Tragically, she was not alone. Nine other children living under the same roof, including her brothers and cousins, were allegedly subjected to similar abuse by members of their own family. Though she eventually escaped after being adopted by an American family, her journey to safety was far from over. Instead of finding love and protection, she faced continued emotional and mental abuse.Determined to seek justice, Yolanda and some of her cousins reported their abusers to the authorities in Mexico, only to be ignored. The investigation into their case has been stalled for over four years, with constant delays and a disturbing lack of action from law enforcement. Despite this, she refuses to stay silent. In this episode, Yolanda speaks about her ongoing fight for justice, the importance of educating young children about abuse prevention—just as schools teach drug prevention—and why exposing these crimes is crucial to breaking the cycle of abuse. She also shares insights into her healing journey and how survivors coming forward can help dismantle the stigma surrounding childhood abuse. This episode is a powerful call to action, demanding justice, awareness, and change.Follow Yolanda on TikTokWatch this episode on YouTubeFollow Kelly:https://kellydillon.com/https://www.instagram.com/kelldillon/https://www.facebook.com/kellydillontv/https://twitter.com/kelly_dillonhttp://tiktok.com/@kelldillonThe truth will truly set us free.
