'My Father Left My Mother For My Sister'

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains descriptions of grooming and features conversation around abuse, please take care when listening.

When Zoe was born, she was welcomed into the world by her mother and father and her two half siblings from her mothers previous relationship.

But one day, her father and sixteen-year-old half sister left the family home and spent years estranged from Zoe and her mother.

It wasn't until she was a teenager herself, that Zoe discovered the real reason that they left... Her father had started an 'affair' with her sister. And now as an adult, Zoe is full of questions and uncomfortable feelings surrounding her father and is here to talk to Anna to unpack her story in an attempt to understand her family history.
