TRIGGER WARNING: this episode discusses sexual assault and the experiences and the feelings surrounding this. We touch on many hard and difficult topics, so if this is too much for you, too raw for you PLEASE give this one a skip. BUT if your mental capacity or emotional ability can handle this one today then I applaud you for listening, hearing Vanessa's story and holding space for this important message and conversation. Vanessa has a powerful story about trauma and recovery from trauma and we know this episode will help so many people so thank you all for listening.
