Activate: Sixteen Conversations about Gender-based Violence

We Need Enthusiastic Consent!

Listen on

Episode notes

Today my guest is Emily Jacob, founder of ReConnected Life as well as a dear friend and personal hero. We are discussing rape and sexual violence, an issue that affects more than 25% of women and 4% of men. This topic is sometimes left out of the conversation, but it's important to understand the nuances of it if we are to truly end gender-based violence.

You'll hear about:

• Who is affected by sexual violence
• What does and doesn't count as "rape"
• Why we need to believe survivors when they speak
• How to move the current picture forward
• What consent should be (enthusiastic and of course, sexy!)
