TW // This episode discusses rape and sexual assault. . . Hi everyone! Thank you so much for clicking on this episode! I sat down with 2/7 of the charity organization creating a safe space for sexual assault survivors, The Survivor Project. We talked about the weight of the word ‘survivor’, the empowerment and community the "Me Too" movement brings but also the reliving of traumatic events, victim-blaming and how it is internalized, the importance of consent, proper sex education and keeping the momentum and conversations alive and how messy but necessary healing is among other things. Stay safe and enjoy!
