What if your greatest ordeal became the key to your personal transformation? Join us as we sit down with Gloria Landano, the inspiring author of "Flourish in Captivity," who recounts her harrowing experience of being kidnapped in Colombia at 25. Held in darkness for 90 agonizing days, Gloria opens up about the psychological torment she endured and how the thought of her three-year-old daughter became her beacon of hope. Get ready to explore the depths of survival instincts and the unexpected emotional bonds formed during such traumatic experiences.

We dive into the emotional aftermath of Gloria’s captivity, discussing the profound sense of abandonment when ransom demands go unmet and the lasting impact on her mental health. Gloria bravely shares the complexities of Stockholm syndrome and the long road to unlearning maladaptive behaviors developed as survival tactics. This intense and candid conversation sheds light on the ongoing struggles with trauma, fear, and anxiety, long after physical freedom is regained, and how these experiences can shape one's sense of identity and relationships.

Finally, Gloria's journey of healing takes center stage as she reveals the transformative power of forgiveness and self-love. Learn how a pivotal forgiveness retreat helped her end a 14-year abusive marriage and embark on a path of personal growth. We discuss the importance of recognizing true, unconditional love, breaking the cycle of suffering for future generations, and rebuilding one's life with passion and freedom. Gloria’s story is a testament to resilience and the boundless potential for personal transformation even in the darkest of times. Tune in for an episode that will inspire and uplift, offering profound insights into healing from trauma and embracing the journey to self-discovery.
