Who we are.

Through a childhood marked by trauma and insecurity, music has always been Eric Osborn's safe haven. After questioning why certain songs or audiobooks felt comforting, his passion as a multi-instrumentalist evolved into production and mixing.

While working as an audio technician at Center for the Arts at Kayenta, Eric met Jan Broberg, who was Executive Director. Both departed CFAK in 2022 and helped create The Jan Broberg Show, with Eric tapped for audio engineering duties.

Nearly four years later, he is still striving to provide the safest possible audio experience for such sensitive subjects.

Though Carrie was adopted into a family who sexually and physically abused her throughout her childhood, she nonetheless excelled at sports, art, reading, and music. These activities helped her cope with the nightmare at home.

She has made excellent progress on her healing journey, overcoming major traumas and many triggers. She holds a strong belief in the power of forgiveness, and loves helping other survivors in whatever way she is able.

Carrie joined the JBF team in the early days and has been a production assistant for The Jan Broberg Show since the start. She has helped Jan and the team find survivors, advocates, clinicians, and allies who can share their voices on the show. As we transition to Trauma Interrupted, Carrie remains determined to help survivors share their stories and shift the public stigmas so many survivors live with every single day.

Hey, hey. I'm Alyse. Born an Okie girl in 1991, I now live in Southern Utah with Jan and her son, my amazing partner, Auzzie. I am the Assistant Community Director and Executive Assistant for JBF. Along with those titles, I also work as a Shelter Monitor in a residential shelter for homeless and displaced teens. Though they can be a handful, as most teens are, the work is very rewarding. For the longest time, I have wanted to work for a non-profit that helps those who need it most. Now, I work for two and couldn't be happier!

The road to get here hasn't been easy. From being a late-diagnosed AUDHD woman struggling with alcoholism and addiction for most of my life, to now being sober a little over a year and gradually working through my trauma, life has been a chaotic whirlwind of highs and lows. My mom, Donna, has been my rock and biggest supporter since childhood. She always loved and accepted me as I am. For that, I'll be forever grateful. I also have two younger brothers, Dillon and Jared, who are way smarter and funnier than me. I love them to pieces and could not ask for better siblings. I may not have been the best big sister growing up, but I was a shining example of what not to do!

On May 3rd, 2025 I finally started my journey to sobriety. In late June I met who is now the love of my life, Auzzie, at a rehab in Orange County. Not long after I met Jan, who I now refer to as Mama Jani. She calls me her Unicorn Moonchild, and I love it. For a short time, I also had the pleasure of helping to care for MaryAnn Broberg before her passing on New Year's Eve. I may not have gotten to know her before the Alzheimer's, but the few times I saw her light up and spoke with her brought me much joy. It was obvious how much she truly loved her family. The first time I saw their house and stepped into it, I knew I was home. Not only because it looked like the house I'd always dreamt of as a child, but because of all the love I felt in the house.

I wouldn't be where I am or the person I am today if it wasn't for all the love and support from my friends and family throughout my life. For the first time in a long time, I am genuinely hopeful for what the future holds. As we like to say in our household, "The universe is conspiring in our favor," and "Every day is a bonus."

Hi, I'm Makayla. I'm a writer, advocate, therapeutic foster parent, and communications professional with a deep passion for helping survivors, children, and families feel seen, supported, and empowered.

I currently serve as Executive Assistant for the Jan Broberg Foundation, where I help lead communication efforts focused on survivor support, outreach, storytelling, and community connection.

My background includes healthcare, advocacy, foster care, and trauma-informed support. Before transitioning into nonprofit and communications work full time, I earned my degree in Respiratory Therapy and worked in hospitals caring for patients and families during some of their most vulnerable moments.

I also volunteered with Day One as a hospital advocate, supporting individuals who had experienced sexual assault during the hospital process, helping survivors feel less alone during incredibly difficult moments and connecting them with resources and support they may need after leaving the hospital.

In addition to my work with survivor advocacy, I work closely with organizations supporting Deaf and Hard of Hearing children and families, including Hands and Voices and EHDI Rhode Island. Much of my work focuses on building stronger communities through education, connection, and compassion.

I'm currently pursuing a degree in psychology with the long-term goal of becoming a therapist. My experiences, both personal and professional, have strengthened my passion for trauma-informed care and survivor-centered healing.

I'm also a mom to five incredible children, including children on the autism spectrum, and many of the projects I create are inspired by the importance of safe spaces, creativity, healing, and belonging.

I am so grateful to be here, and I can't wait to see where this journey leads for both myself and all of you. I hope to meet you all in the Survivor Circle.
