Selina Waterman-Smith

I survived what should’ve destroyed me, and now I’m telling the truth about things that others tried to silence me on.

I’m Selina Waterman-Smith: writer, survivor, former "The Apprentice" candidate, and advocate for victims.

This channel is where we dive into real-life trauma: childhood abuse, coercive control, narcissistic manipulation, kidnapping, betrayal, and the brutal systems that failed me in Dubai and almost cost me my life.

I'm going to share my experiences as well as what going from insane-to-sane actually looks like (and maybe even a cheeky episode about my time on The Apprentice.)

If you’re rebuilding after abuse/toxic relationships, or just trying to make sense of your story; welcome to my channel and I hope you'll feel welcome here.

🎙️ Podcast episodes weekly (every Tuesday, also available on Spotify/Apple)
