YT101 | How She Survived a Toxic Marriage, PTSD and Divorce — The Fantastic Story of Miki Amrita
Meet Miki Amrita, a Japanese-born founder of Nonviolent Communication Singapore and a woman who has walked through silence, conflict, divorce, motherhood, and self-leadership with astonishing grace, we dive into the raw, tender realities behind “being strong.”
In this conversation on YanaTV we explore what it means to grow up in a culture of harmony yet crave honesty, how women learn to silence themselves in the name of belonging, and why anger, especially for women, is one of the hardest emotions to access.
Miki opens up about her 17-year marriage, navigating PTSD in relationships, rebuilding her identity after divorce, and learning how to balance the masculine and feminine parts of herself while raising her son in a blended family.
If you want a deeply human, unfiltered conversation about resilience, identity, conflict, and what it actually takes to build love and family on your own terms, this episode will stay with you long after it ends.
