What if the very thing you were told to keep quiet about… is the story that sets someone else free? In this episode of the Legacy Building Mamas Podcast, I sit down with Cat Dunn — award-winning OBM, mentor, speaker, and host of Life After I Left. Cat shares how starting her business while in an abusive relationship became the lifeline that reconnected her to the world — and ultimately, to herself.

Now a powerful voice for women reclaiming their worth, Cat helps others rise from silence — whether it's domestic violence, generational conditioning, or outdated business expectations. This conversation goes beyond business — it’s about truth, liberation, and remembering who you are beneath everything you were told to be. If you’ve ever felt stuck, unseen, or unsure of your next step — this one’s for you.
