It's Sexual Assault Awareness Month and this year's theme really resonated with me - Building Connected Communities.

In today’s episode, I talk about the role of shame that survivors often carry, and how open conversations are key to shifting societal attitudes and creating true understanding. Thus, ending shame and ultimately the prevalence and impact of what it means to be a survivor.

Our voices really can spark positive change towards the supportive communities all survivors deserve.

One voice joining another, spreading awareness like ripples - that's how real change happens. Join the conversation.
