Twenty years after a sexual assault that changed her life, today's guest on Relentlessly Resilient shares her continued struggle to come to terms with the trauma. When she was raped as a teenager, the criminal system and social structure surrounding her caused her to doubt everything, from the consent given to the violence she received. Now, after years of therapy, and contemplation, she is ready to share her story as a cautionary tale about teaching youth about sexuality, consent, and holding others and yourself accountable for their actions and your own reaction. This guest found great support through Saprea.org, an organization that exists to liberate individuals and society from child sexual abuse and its lasting impacts.  If you have experienced sexual violence, you can access help and resources by calling Utah's 24-hour Sexual Violence Helpline at 1-888-421-1100. You can also call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-4673 for free, confidential counseling. Even though we live in challenging times, we can become Relentlessly Resilient as we lean on and learn from one another's experiences. Hosts Jennie Taylor and Michelle Scharf are no strangers to overcoming adversity; Michelle lost her husband to cancer, while Jennie's husband, Major Brent Taylor, was killed in the service of our country. Their stories bond them together, and now listeners can join them weekly as they visit with others enduring challenges and who teach us how they are exercising resiliency, finding value in their grief, and purpose in moving forward.  Listen to the Relentlessly Resilient Podcast regularly on your favorite platform, at kslpodcasts.com, kslnewsradio.com, or on the KSL NewsRadio App Join the Resilience conversation on Facebook at @RelentlesslyResilient and Instagram @RelentlesslyResilientPodcast.
