*Trigger warning* This episode deals with the shame that comes after a sexual assault. I get candid about my own experience and the shame that came after I was sexually assaulted. I also touch on why shame might be one of the reasons why some people choose not to come forward after being violated. Each person’s journey and story is different and it’s not up to us to decide when or how a person should share their experience. Remember, empathy and compassion go a very long way.
