Chanel Miller’s story is one of resilience, courage, and the power of reclaiming your voice. Known to the world as “Emily Doe” in the Brock Turner case, her victim impact statement ignited a global conversation about sexual assault, justice, and survivor advocacy. But Chanel is more than what happened to her—she is a writer, an artist, and a force for change.

In this episode, we explore Chanel’s journey from anonymity to empowerment, the significance of naming oneself, and the lasting impact of her words. Her story is a reminder of the strength found in softness and the transformative power of speaking your truth.
