When you decide to forgive someone, especially if that other person does not acknowledge that they've done anything wrong, it has less to do about the fact that they do in fact need to be held accountable.
Bethany England has been a force for change since she was a child. In this episode of 'The Never Give Up Show!', she opens up about her journey from surviving sexual assault to becoming a passionate advocate. Bethany’s story is not just about enduring trauma; it’s about transforming that pain into a mission for justice and support for others.
With a background in communications and leadership from Rollins College, Bethany has a wealth of experience in activism, from helping troubled youth to making masks for hospitals during the pandemic. But her advocacy doesn’t stop there. She dives deep into the broken judicial system, the importance of mental health support for survivors, and the urgent need for awareness around coercive control and domestic violence.
Bethany's resilience is evident as she discusses how forgiveness plays a crucial role in healing, even when those who have wronged you refuse to acknowledge their actions. Her insights are not just theoretical; they come from a place of lived experience and relentless determination to make a positive impact. This episode is a beacon for anyone looking to understand the complexities of recovery and the power of activism.
Tune in to hear Bethany’s inspiring story and learn how one person’s strength can spark change.
