Tonight's special guest is Rai Maestro. "My parents abused me," he says, "from a young baby to a teenager. They were in the closet, and my mother was an extreme homophobe. She hated my father and brother for being gay, and she made sure I would not become gay. I was an unwanted child, and my family hated me for being born. I was supposed to be abortion, and they always wanted a girl. I lived in a violent home full of witchcraft where my parents had mental problems and were institutionalized. My father was an alcoholic, and my mother enjoyed torturing me daily. I could never tell anyone anything because they brainwashed me into believing all families were the same. My mother threatened me daily, and they tried to kill me many times growing up. I also attempted to commit  suicide many times, as a child and as an adult. Eventually I started therapy, on and off, in 2007, and in 2017, after a few more suicide attempts, and I went into intense therapy. I have fully recovered since 2019, and I engage in public speaking seminars and conferences locally whenever possible. My purpose is to help others and raise abuse awareness and prevention. I started going public in 2020 but am delayed because of Covid. I wrote two books not yet published. 1st  book 'Fighting through the darkness' and the 2nd  book: 'OMG, my mother is a witch'. My series  'Let's survive together' will be a series of about 10-12 books revolving around my life to help others recover. It's also the name of my website."
