E127: Breaking the Silence on Childhood Sexual Abuse, Hannah Saunders’ Journey


Listen Later

Some stories are too important to stay in the shadows. Hannah Saunders bravely shares her experience of childhood sexual abuse, the years she spent carrying that burden alone, and the moment she found the courage to speak out. 


For many, finding the words to talk about trauma can feel impossible. But as Hannah explains, language matters. Support matters. And having the right conversations, both at home and in schools can make all the difference. She also shares the challenges of navigating the legal system, the power of community, and why getting help now is so important.


Hannah’s story isn’t just about pain; it’s about resilience, change, and hope. She’s determined to make an impact and ensure others don’t feel as alone as she once did.


Whether you’ve experienced trauma yourself, want to support someone who has, or simply believe in the power of honest conversations, this episode is one you can’t afford to miss.
