This episode includes some potentially upsetting content. My guest Nicola is the survivor of sexual abuse and rape.

Nicola is now using her rediscovered voice to help others, including those researching into how best to support other survivors.

Support services referenced in the episode include St Mary's Sexual Abuse Referral Centre in Manchester.

There are SARC centres across the UK.

The biggest message to take away from this episode is; if you too have experienced abuse or rape, reach out and get help.

Nicola and I met in a yoga class, she is a brilliant teacher, she supports people of any age to make gradual progress towards a stronger mind and body.

More information about her teaching and classes on Nicola Moves You - on instagram.

Nicola is the embodiment of strength and resilience.

I am honoured and privileged to share her story.
