Raised by a Japanese father and an American mother, she was raised bilingually. (She honestly doesn't know which her first language was!)</p><p>Unfortunately, her home was not a safe place for children. Physical and verbal abuse were "normal" in her home. After she became an adult, the relationship did not get any better. </p><p>In 2017, Isami became permanently estranged from her parents. </p><p>She was depressed and unable to see herself in a positive way. After much inner work and healing, she realized that the estrangement did not define her worth. </p><p>Having discovered this, her passion is to share the same empowerment by coaching, speaking, and creating content.</p><p>Isami is a survivor of child sexual abuse and mental health advocate (Her abuser was also her church pianist from ages 9-almost 14).</p><p>She was raised in church all of her life, but says she did not meet Jesus until she was 23. </p><p>It took being removed from my abusive home/church to realize her abusers and Jesus were completely opposite.</p><p>She considers herself an anomaly. As most would (and understandably so) never want to have anything to do with God ever again.</p><p><br></p><p>➕Isami has hosted safety/abuse seminars for church leaders</p><p>➕Created content for those struggling with mental health</p><p>➕Spoken on multiple podcasts/live videos across the globe</p><p><br></p><p>She has received some of the best diversity & inclusion training as a former international flight attendant and currently as an employee of Forbes top #2 largest employers to work for in the United States.</p><p><br></p><p>She also has an international CPC coaching certification as well as an interdisciplinary studies degree in psychology/communications/design.</p><p><br></p><p>And she wants to speak to your church/youth group/organization!</p><p><br></p><p>If you are truly concerned about the safety of your congregation, want your staff to have a broader understanding of diversity & inclusion, and/or want someone to encourage your church/youth group/organization:</p><p>Isami is here to help!</p><p><br></p><p>Please feel free to reach out to her via email:</p><p>[email protected] or on her website <a href="https://www.isamidaehn.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.isamidaehn.com/</a></p><p>________________</p><p><strong>Find more stories regarding the IFB movement by visiting:</strong></p><p>– <a href="https://app.redcircle.com/shows/a23caa9f-f71e-4f4b-9323-1d3be04bef15/ep/46380bd3-306c-4bc1-9f66-d6cf9326f8e6/preacherboysdoc.com" rel="nofollow">preacherboysdoc.com</a></p><p>– <a href="https://www.facebook.com/preacherboysdoc/" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/preacherboysdoc/</a></p><p>– <a href="https://twitter.com/preacherboysdoc" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/preacherboysdoc</a></p><p>– <a href="https://www.instagram.com/preacherboysdoc/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/preacherboysdoc/</a></p><p>To connect with a community who share the Eric Skwarczynski and the Preacher Boys Podcast mission to expose abuse in the IFB, join the OFFICIAL Preacher Boys Facebook Group: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1403898676438188" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/groups/1403898676438188</a></p><br /><br />This episode is sponsored by/brought to you by BetterHelp.
