Episode 11: #LETSTALKABUSE with Ryan Gadsby
Stay Connected...Thank you for your support !
In this episode, we talk to Ryan Gadsby, a young man who has been through childhood sexual abuse and is using his platform to speak out and educate others. Ryan created a video called 'Letter to my Abuser' where he tells a visual story of going through and surviving years of sexual, physical, mental and emotional abuse by his step father by using actual photos and footage from his childhood. We start this episode with the audio from this video, but please click below for the link to the video.
We discuss how we as a society should be questioning everything, but how these real issues are not brought to light because Hollywood and the media make jokes out of it. People can't fathom the evil that is done because it's just fiction. We are not doing a service to anyone who suffers this trauma by not believing them...especially men. Only a small percentage of survivors that come forth to break their silence are men and yet astounding statistics surround child abuse towards males.
Ryan's story is important for many reasons. Abuse can take place anywhere and to anyone and the first place we should always look for signs of abuse is right within our own homes and neighborhoods. We can't ignore these issues anymore and need to listen to survivors like Ryan when they speak. When men like Ryan step up and speak their truth, it allows others like him to step up and do the same. Ryan is an inspiration and what he's doing deserves to be recognized and celebrated. It's the courage of brave survivors like him who will bring positive change to our future's children.
