In today's episode, Stacie talks about honouring our grief. Yes, grief for what you lost as a result of your experience(s). Grief that you had so much taken away from you against your will. Grief is not often spoken about in relation to sexual trauma but it is real and it is heavy if left unprocessed. Grief is the word that encapsulates all the emotions that Stacie felt during the early stages of healing. She talks about her own experience and the tools that have helped her process it. This is still in progress and that’s okay. Included in this episode are journal prompts and suggestions to invite you to explore your own grief. As always, take care of yourself when listening - look after yourself first and foremost and what you need today. The podcast will be here when you are ready.

Book: Life after sexual abuse: A Practical Healing Toolkit to Reconnect Mind, Body & Soul

In this episode, Stacie is joined by the joyful Hanna Francis who is a singer and songwriter to share the healing power of music. This podcast is all about empowering you with tools to help you along your healing journey and where you want to be so this episode is perfect for how music can (and probably is) helping you. This episode is an uplifting one, giving us a break from the heavy stuff that is healing after trauma - a reminder that it is necessary to give ourselves a break from feeling it all, all of the time. 

Hanna Francis is a singer-songwriter and Balkan folk-dance teacher who is obsessed with self-help and believes you can be a little happier right now with the intentional use of music (both experiencing and creating). Her original music, blog, newsletter, podcast, song sessions and YouTube dance lessons are all rooted in the belief that music is a form of therapy and self-hypnosis. She consciously uses the power of song to, with your permission, elevate you up the emotional ladder. You can find Hanna on Instagram @selfhelpsongwriter and her website www.selfhelpsongwriter.com.

Thank you for being here - you are appreciated more than you know.

In this solo episode, Stacie talks about how in the beginning of the healing journey how she felt broken and thought she needed fixing. Part of the healing journey is acknowledging what is present - giving it space to be seen, heard and felt. Stacie reads an extract from her book Life after sexual abuse (Chapter 1 'I'm not broken') - a letter to her inner child. Everything you feel now is valid - give it space to be heard. Stacie's wish for you is that you healing journey brings you to a place of knowing that you too, are not broken. It wasn't your fault.

The pod is back with a guest episode where Stacie chats to business coach and mentor Lauren April (Instagram @Laurenapril.co) who shares her experiences of sexual assault aged 10 and 13. This episode goes into the complexities of abuse within families and how we can struggle with guilt and shame when abuse experiences were not traumatic. This is an important episode about teenage development and how we feel at the time can affect how we view both the experience and how we feel about ourselves. This podcast is a safe space to share your truth - without judgement. All experiences and feelings are valid and welcome. Thank you Lauren for sharing your truth here.
