In this inaugural episode of Survivor Talk: Healing from a Thousand Cuts, Amanda Durocher and Kate Chisholm share why they decided to start a podcast about the realities of healing from sexual violence. They talk about their own personal healing journeys, explaining the societal barriers that survivors face, and the lack of open discourse surrounding the daily realities of living as a survivor. Kate and Amanda discuss how they feel about the word “survivor”.

They also engage in a light-hearted Q&A to provide listeners with a sense of who they are beyond their experiences, touching on topics such as where they grew up, favorite travel destinations, favorite self-care, and more. Join Kate and Amanda as they dismantle the silence surrounding sexual violence and begin their journey of survivor talk.
