Can we prioritise the urgent need to teach young people, especially those from the care system, about consent. And that with the right support and guidance there is hope at the end of the tunnel.
If you are interested in how we can heal even after a traumatic childhood, listen to my guest this week, Hope Daniels, Sunday Times bestselling author who describes in her latest book This isn’t Love, how she went from living with alcoholic parents to a chaotic childhood in care with sexual abuse from an older man, to addiction in adulthood, until she turned it around in therapy and now advocates for young people in care & a safer system for them to grow up in.
Hope shares her experiences and advocates for a better world in which children who are under the care of the state can trust that they will be safe from abuse and sexual exploitation.
Hope shows us that no matter what we have experienced in the past, when we get the right support we can heal and in turn, go on to stand up for the rights of all.
You can buy Hope’s books in all good bookstores.
And follow her on Linkedin under her real name Dr Jenny Molloy.
Warning- there is swearing and discussion of sexual exploitation in this episode.
