Beneath the Branches: The Weight of His Shadow

Danielle To You Season 1 Episode 7

In this raw and emotional episode of I’m Talkin to You, I’m Talkin to Me Too

I dive into a haunting memory that still lingers: the night my sister caught my ex staring through my bedroom window, fixated on me, unaware of her presence. 

It’s a story of unease, uncertainty, and the fear that followed, as I lay awake wondering what he saw, what he knew, and what might come next. This moment opens the door to deeper reflections on my marriage—living in separate rooms under one roof, trying to make it work, and grappling with the weight of silence around the truths I’ve yet to fully share. 

I touch on the pain of losing our son, the violence I’ve never spoken aloud, and the chilling discovery that he named his new child after a nickname from our past, tied to Game of Thrones and memories of better days. 

With vulnerability, I wrestle with questions about his new partner, her role in my children’s lives, and whether she knows the man I knew. This episode is about breaking the silence of my own story, confronting the past, and hoping for change—not just for me, but for my kids and anyone caught in similar shadows. 

Join me as I unpack the layers of fear, resilience, and the journey to reclaim my voice.
