Episode 11: Sexual Assault, prevention, awareness & recovery with Marie McKenzie 

 In today’s episode Marie McKenzie, CEO and founder of the International Sexual Assault Recovery Institute, shares her journey of overcoming sexual assault and empowering other survivors. With over two and a half decades of experience as a registered nurse, including her role as a sexual assault nurse examiner in the clinical and community settings, Marie blends her professional expertise with the tools and techniques that facilitated her own healing journey. Her mission is to reassure survivors that they are never alone and that the path to resolving their triggers is not only feasible but empowering.
 

They further discuss:

  • Speaking up after sexual assault, the importance of healing and seeking support
  • The common experience of feeling silenced and blaming oneself after abuse.
  •  The need for comprehensive education on consent and boundaries, starting from a young age, to prevent sexual abuse
