Childhood Sexual Assault: A Healing Journey

Listen in for a vivid and honest first hand account of what a decade of silence after a childhood sexual assault from a trusted parent figure feels like. This week our guest Vanessa, a queer woman of colour, explains how she broke her silence and fought in court in order to help her heal from childhood traumas.

Topics include why she kept her silence, what finally changed her mind, what steps she has taken and would suggest to reclaim a sense of self after assault, and the best way to offer support to someone who comes to you with an instance of sexual assault.

Other discussions involve the Vanessa’s adult relationship with sex, how her queerness has played a part in her journey, and how the language preference we use in this context (survivor vs. victim) is very personal.
