In this powerful episode of Love In The Wild, Katelyn Ansari sits down with Tiffany Braxton to explore what it looks like to turn trauma and sexual abuse into something powerful that creates change within families.
Katelyn and Tiffany dive into the importance of having open, honest conversations about sexual assault, consent, boundaries, and why so many families struggle to talk about these topics at all. This conversation unpacks how silence can create confusion or misunderstanding and how breaking that silence through fun, teachable moments can pave the way toward education and connection.
Our guest, Tiffany, shares how her personal experience led her to create Consent Comics, a creative and accessible way to teach consent through storytelling and comic book art. What started as a response to lived trauma and Complex PTSD has grown into Tiffany's mission to help families, parents, young people, and anyone seeking healthier relationships have language for conversations that are often avoided.
