*****

Sexual abuse can take on many forms, revealing itself in the physical and mental trauma it leaves in its wake. Regardless of the form that it takes, the bottom line is that it is NEVER justifiable. It’s not about having better conversations with your abuser, not dressing a certain way, being sure you don’t drink or do drugs…

Abuse is abuse, and it is not the survivor or victim’s fault. It. never. is.

Today, we’re talking to Leanna Larkin (she/her), founder of Reluctant Heroines, a movement to give you the tools and techniques to flourish after sexual violence. You can find her on Instagram at www.instagram.com/reluctantheroines
