In the second episode of "Full Circle Dates," titled "our second date with trauma and sexual assault," I take a deeply personal and courageous dive into my own childhood sexual assault case. This intimate episode sheds light on the lasting impact of trauma and the toll it has taken on my life as I share my story from the vulnerable setting of their bathroom floor.

With unwavering honesty, I try to take listeners on a heartfelt journey through my lived experiences, providing a raw and authentic account of the trauma I've endured. I aim to create a safe space for survivors and inspire open conversations surrounding sexual assault.

"our second date with trauma and sexual assault" aims to destigmatize conversations around sexual assault and encourage listeners to engage in empathy and understanding when supporting survivors. By sharing my own story, I seek to empower others to break the silence and find solace in the strength of community.

Join me on this transformative journey as I navigate my own healing process and encourage listeners to find their own paths to healing and self-discovery. "Full Circle Dates" delivers a powerful message of hope, resilience, and the importance of self-love in the face of trauma.
