46. Sexual Abuse Prevention and Consent with Rosalia Rivera

Have you ever had a bad feeling about dropping your child off at an unfamiliar place? Whether it’s a daycare, camp, or even a friend's house, there’s likely a reason that our mother’s instinct kicks in. Rosalia Rivera joined me in a conversation regarding child abuse and I was shocked to hear how prevalent it is. Although the topic may seem uncomfortable, Rosalia provides us with tips to educate and empower our children to ensure their safety.
Rosalia is a passionate consent educator, sexual literacy advocate, TEDx speaker, change agent, and survivor turned thriver. She is also the host of the About Consent Podcast, the founder of Consent Parenting, and Consentwear. She has three missions; to help parents and caregivers to empower their children and lives through consent education, to help childhood sexual trauama survivors find their voice, rediscover their power, and reclaim their innate sexual divinity, and to dismantle shame around sexuality through education and awareness.
In this episode we discuss:
How to start teaching your children about body safety
Reframing the conversation of sexual abuse prevention with our children
