In this episode, I had the honor to interview a high school friend and author of From Within: My Path of Hope and Healing from Sexual Abuse. One in three girls and one in six boys will be sexually abused by the time they reach 18 years of age. Gigi Kilroe not only survived repressed sexual trauma from a very early age, she experienced dating violence, rape in college and another rape in her early 20s. How does one survive that, let alone come out the other side in a triumph position? Listen to this podcast to find out how Gigi went from abuse to a suicide attempt and more ideation to writing a book and being on the speaking circuit to help other survivors learn to find that light within and shine it brightly like she has learned to do. You can find Gigi at www.gigikilroe.com or connect with her on her on FaceBook as Gigi Kilroe.
