E194: Facing the Jaguar: Breaking Generational Trauma with Babs Walters

In this powerful and deeply moving episode, we sit down with Babs Walters—a domestic violence and sexual abuse survivor who has spent over 30 years raising awareness about the long-term effects of generational trauma and the importance of breaking the cycle.

Babs shares candidly about her courageous journey—from holding the weight of a devastating secret for nearly 70 years to finally reclaiming her voice and truth. With a Master's in Counseling Human Relations, decades of experience conducting women's empowerment and sexual harassment trainings, and a role on a Harassment Investigation Committee for thirteen years, Babs brings both professional insight and lived experience to this vital conversation.

Her upcoming memoir, Facing the Jaguar: A Memoir of Courage and Confrontation (releasing June 17th), is a beacon of hope for survivors everywhere. In it, Babs opens the door to dark family secrets with honesty and grace—proving that healing is possible at any age.
