It’s Time to Reclaim Your Power!

You’re not powerless.  You might think you are, but you’re not.  In fact, you’re actually quite powerful.  

Yes, the person who abused you was probably someone you knew and trusted.  But that doesn’t make the abuse your fault.  You’re not what happened to you.  You’re the same wonderful, awesome, powerful person you were before the abuse.  And you always have been.  

But if that’s the truth (and it is), then why have you always felt powerless?  

Because child sexual abuse is one of those topics our society prefers not to talk about.  And not talking about it is the problem.  It makes CSA much worse for everyone.  The victims feel powerless, because they don’t know what to do about the horrible thing that happened to them.  The safe adults around them could have helped.  But they didn’t, because they never received CSA prevention education.  When no one talks about CSA, everyone loses.

During my keynote speech this month at ABC House, a children’s advocacy center in Oregon, I said I only began to live a powerful life when I discovered how powerful it felt to tell my story.  This is the kind of information children, parents, and CSA survivors in our communities are missing.  When no one talks about CSA, no one learns how to prevent or heal from it.

Change has to start with us.  Survivors are the ones who must begin the dialogue about CSA and how to prevent it.  No one else is going to do it.

A few weeks ago, I was interviewed by Matt at “Surviving My Past” (Link).  In this interview, we discussed Darkness to Light, the five steps to protecting kids, and the importance of talking about CSA.  

It’s time to reclaim your power, my friends.  And you do that by telling your story.

When you do, the kids, parents, and CSA survivors in your community will thank you for it.  They need what you have to offer.  They need to see your power.  They need to know they have the power to prevent CSA or to heal from it.  

They need you and your story.  Are you ready to reclaim your power?
