Healing sexual trauma takes time. Many people wish to rush the process, but unfortunately it’s a journey that takes time, patience, and a lot of self-compassion. In this episode, I dive into my own healing journey and story of being raped in my teens. I also answer a question from someone looking for closure after being raped, and someone who feels read to begin looking at the layers of their sexual assault, but doesn’t know where to start. 

*Trigger warning - this episode goes into detail about sexual violence.

If you or someone you know is struggling to heal from sexual assault, call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-4673 or visit https://www.rainn.org/ to learn more. Please take care of yourself.
