Shifting Perspectives: Laura Reagan on Sexual Assault and Healing

Whether or not it's true, and completely ignoring the fact that people get involved in these kind of things out of that broken place, you know, and it's just easier to dehumanize, especially when it's women, because there's so little, there's such a long history of no power there, such a long history of seeing women and children as property.
How do we change the narrative around sexual assault? In this compelling episode of 'Mindful Recovery', host Robert Cox sits down with Laura Reagan, a licensed clinical social worker specializing in trauma and sexual assault. Together, they tackle the tough topic of victim blaming and the historical dehumanization of victims, particularly women. Laura sheds light on how these attitudes have perpetuated harm and hindered recovery.
She emphasizes the critical role of empathy and the power of healthy social connections in overcoming trauma and addiction. By creating a non-judgmental space, we can begin to support those who are struggling and foster a community of healing. If you're interested in understanding more about these issues and how to cultivate a more empathetic society, this episode is a must-listen.
