Me Too Movement: A Survivor's Perspective on Healing and Self-Care

It's so important to make sure we're taking care of ourselves first. You are important and you deserve the best care that you could ever receive.
How do you navigate a world suddenly more aware of the horrors of sexual abuse? In this powerful episode, D.J. Burr, a Seattle psychotherapist and survivor, dives into the impact of the Me Too movement on both male and female survivors. With raw honesty, Burr shares his own emotional journey, sparked by the wave of public revelations and accusations, including those against high-profile figures like Kevin Spacey.
He opens up about the whirlwind of emotions he experienced and emphasizes the importance of self-care during such turbulent times. Burr also discusses his future plans, including his desire to become a foster parent and his hopes for returning to the podcast. Through his candid reflections, listeners gain valuable insights into coping mechanisms and the necessity of looking after oneself while processing trauma.
This episode is not just a story of survival but a call to prioritize mental health and support systems in the journey towards healing.
