About this listen

In this episode, I share a story about how after years of healing from rape and overcoming immense trauma, I found myself facing an unexpected emotional challenge: survivor’s guilt. As I began to reconnect with life, I struggled with the guilt of being alive while others still die by suicide after experiencing sexual assault and rape. I reflect on my own journey of battling suicidal thoughts to embracing life again. This story explores themes of guilt, unworthiness, and self-forgiveness, shedding light on the emotional complexities survivors of trauma and rape often face. If you are a survivor of sexual violence, you are not alone. Sending you so much love, thank you for listening.
