Spoiler alert! These are two success stories!
Our host Eri, dedicates this episode to fellow survivors.
"Recently, Rachel & I realized we've both had similar experiences of navigating reproductive care as survivors of sexual assault. It can be powerfully healing to see yourself reflected in someone else's story. We knew, as survivors and community educators, that this is a conversation we wanted to share with others.
Join us for a two part, vulnerable deep-dive into what it can look like to navigate reproductive care as a survivor. In part 1, Rachel speaks to her experience in somatic therapy, strategies utilized prior to her medical visit, and what an empowering experience can look like!
MEET RACHEL
Rachel Sementilli (she/her) is a queer full spectrum birthworker, holistic fertility & menstrual cycle healing guide and a reproductive health educator based in so-called Southeast Michigan. She also spends time doing work as an intuitive energy healer and yoga teacher. Rachel was brought to this work, like so many of us, by her personal experiences, healing journey and drive for political activism. She is passionate about this work and about devoting herself to a praxis that is self-healing, community healing and cultural healing all at once.
