Conversations with the Code 9 Foundation. Episode 40 - Kelly Humphries
This is a cross post from Roll With The Punches, episode 771.
In this episode, Kelly Humphries shares her powerful and deeply personal journey. Opening up about her experiences as a survivor of child sexual abuse, she reflects on the challenges she faced and overcame.
The unfortunate reality is that in Australia, almost 30% of people experience sexual abuse by the age of 18.
The conversation delves into the complexities of building friendships and maintaining relationships while grappling with past trauma. Kelly also discusses her former career in the Queensland Police Service, highlighting the impact of her work on her mental health and her eventual transition into advocacy and support for other abuse survivors.
The episode touches on important topics such as creating safe spaces for conversation, understanding the nuances of trauma response, and the importance of self-compassion and healing.
Kelly's story is a testament to resilience and the transformative power of speaking one's truth. Tiff chimes in with some of my insights and experiences and aim to ask Kelly questions that can empower survivors, allies, and parents not to feel like they need to grapple with these experiences swamped in shame, silence, or isolation.
