Have you ever had a gap in your employment record? Was it ever brought up in an interview and did you have to explain what you did in that gap? I don't see the need to know what happened in a gap or disclose that information. As someone who has interviewed people and been interviewed I would say show the value of your skillsets and what contributions you've made in each role and discuss what you will do if hired for said role.
