In this Survivor Story episode, Stacie has the honour of speaking with Kath from Ireland giving a different sexual trauma experience that we haven't heard on the podcast before - stranger violence/assault in adulthood. Many of the experiences shared so far have been in childhood and so Kath and her story gives a voice to those who have experienced sexual assault in adulthood. We honour those victims who have lost their lives during violent sexual attacks - those that didn't survive. We hold them in our hearts during this episode. No specific details are given about the incident in this episode, the focus is about raising awareness of the isolation survivors of this type of abuse experience. Kath, although remains anonymous, wishes to offer to be a point of contact if there are any other survivors who have experienced a similar type of trauma and want to be connected to share the healing journey. You can contact Stacie who can then put you in touch with Kath. Thank you Kath for sharing your much needed voice and experience. As always, take care whilst listening - look after yourself first.

*Take extra care when listening to this episode* In this guest episode, Stacie and Louise take on the very sensitive topic of navigating sex after sexual trauma. They vulnerably share their own personal journey's which coincidentally have similar themes. Sexual intimacy and relationships can be extremely difficult to navigate when often survivor's are still in the trauma response. As aways, there are many potential varying experiences however, the hope in sharing this conversation is that it is a safe space to reflect upon your own experience and recognise what you need to heal after sexual trauma. We give you permission to be exactly where you are and encourage you to question unserving beliefs you may have about yourself and your sexuality; trauma often has a way of creating limiting beliefs and behaviours. You can connect with Louise on Instagram (@_LouiseMilne).

Stacie chats with her sister Katherine on this very topical subject of whether to report (or not report) abuse to police to seek justice. This episode is based upon both their experiences of going through the UK justice system. Experiences will vary depending upon the laws of the justice system of a specific country. We caveat this episode that the decision to/or not to report is a very individual one and we do not advocate/advise for or against - there are arguments for both sides of the case (no pun intended) and this is what we discuss in this episode. This episode is to give a real insight into the lived experience but mainly to give you permission to do what feels right for you. Some listeners may find this episode triggering so please do take care and know it will be here if and when you want to come back.

In this episode, Stacie talks about this very important topic of nervous system safety, how to bring the nervous system back into it's baseline (parasympathetic) state and the importance of safety and trust when healing after sexual trauma. Feeling unsafe in our bodies and minds is what triggers the trauma/stress response and a big part of the healing journey is regaining a sense of safety and trust again. This episode contains some ideas/tools to help such as mindful breathing, subconscious processing (therapy), journaling and daily 'tune ins' to bring awareness to what you need to feel safe. 

As always, take care of yourself when listening - look after yourself first and foremost and what you need today. The podcast will be here when you are ready.
