FSR Season 2 - Michelle Shekhinah
Welcome to the Financial Secrets Revealed Series 2 podcast episode where Amanda Cassar meets with Michelle Shekhinah, a survivor of sex trafficking by her former husband, to support a drug habit and expensive lifestyle.
Michelle shares her story of how financial abuse kept her in a horrific relationship where control was so important to her violent partner. After 17 years of marriage, and two children, Michelle was introduced to a seedy world of overindulgence in alcohol, drugs, sexual deviance, and trafficking. She’d wake up in places she couldn’t remember getting to… was never protected by the one person that should have looked out for her; and wants to share what she’s learned.
Michelle spent many nights crying on the floor, until one night she saved her life, and ran for the door. She has become a strong mum for her children and is now an advocate and mentor for other women and teens suffering from abuse. Her story is compelling, heartbreaking, and full of hope and reconciliation.
Amanda enjoys Lifting the Lid on Financial Abuse with Michelle. It’s a dark topic, but one that needs to be told, to help all victims become survivors. And financial abuse is often just part of a larger picture of abuse. We hope you’ve gained lots of nuggets of wisdom from Michelle’s story.
