Surviving Trauma, PTSD, and a Household Shattered by Addiction: My Journey to Healing and Saving My Mental Health

This week, we sit down with Ana Isabel Hume, aka Anabel — lifestyle and sports host, fitness competitor, and mental health advocate — for one of our most raw and powerful conversations yet. Anabel opens up about losing her father to suicide, being diagnosed with a brain tumor at 11, living with a shunt, growing up around addiction, and surviving a marriage marked by PTSD and emotional trauma. Despite the odds, she rebuilt her life through faith, healing, and discipline — and now she's helping others do the same. For anyone who’s walked through pain and still found the courage to rise — this episode will leave you inspired. #trauma #ptsdrecovery #addictionrecovery #mentalhealthawareness #healingjourney #faithoverfear #resilience #overcomingtrauma #survivorstories #mentalhealthmatters #riseabove #healingfromtrauma #addictionawareness #emotionalhealing #inspiration #motivationalstories #mentalhealthsupport #growthmindset #traumasurvivor #recoveryjourney Learn more about your ad choices.
