TRIGGER WARNING
Most women who come to me with low libido, disconnection from their bodies, and no desire for intimacy are carrying something they have never said out loud. Childhood sexual assault. Adult assault. A relationship that slowly stripped them of themselves. A body that checked out because it knew something was wrong before their mind would let them admit it.
Gwen Levey is a viral Nashville rocker, survivor, and co-founder of the Rise Above Justice Movement. She told her story publicly for the first time at a press conference at the Tennessee State Capitol, and she brings that same honesty here.
We talk about minimizing. The way you tell yourself it did not count because it was not what you were taught assault looks like. The way your body disconnects during intimacy and sends you somewhere else entirely. The way healing does not happen in a straight line, and the way brainspotting and therapy can literally repair the part of the brain that trauma damaged.
We also get into the Epstein files, child marriage, Roe v. Wade, a justice system that protects perpetrators, and what it means to try to report abuse and be told it is not enough.
This is the conversation I wish more people were having.
