In this deeply moving episode of The Elisha Show, Allicia Johnson-Niles shares a powerful and vulnerable story of loss, healing, faith, and courage that will stay with you long after you listen 🎙️💛

Allicia opens up about losing her father to murder at just two years old, growing up with unresolved grief, anxiety, fear, and people-pleasing, and how childhood trauma quietly shaped her adulthood 🧠💔 Through years of searching, faith, and deep inner work, she discovered what she now calls Unlikely Courage—the strength born from trauma that emerges when we dare to face the truth we’ve been avoiding 🌱🔥

This episode explores how unacknowledged grief can follow us for decades, why healing begins when pain is finally named, and how faith and truth can lead to liberation 🕊️✨ Allicia also shares the story behind her upcoming book Angel in Arlington, her journey uncovering the truth surrounding her father’s death in the U.S. Navy, and why transparency for military families is not optional but essential 🇺🇸⚖️

Listeners will also learn about the life-changing role of TAPS (Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors) and how healing in community validates pain, restores identity, and reminds survivors they are not alone 🤍🤝
