This is the most intense and most vulnerable video I have ever made.
During the filming, I actually started developing a rash… (You can see this happening at 2:07.)
..and afterwards I got super sick and threw up violently for about an hour while Andrew held my hair back.
For the first time, I speak in depth about being sexually abused as a child.
This video is super intense – but the message is crucial.
(If you get triggered easily, you might want to watch it somewhere private.)
I think this is the most important video I have ever made – over a billion people have experienced this – that is a lot of pain – and I feel like that’s why I had such a strong reaction filming it.
And it’s also the potential for a lot of healing.
For the sake of our mothers, daughters, brothers, fathers and friends…
Listen to my Sexual Abuse story below.
I haven’t wanted to release it because it’s so raw and so precious and just so real.
But having spent years dealing with the silent suffering of the abused – I know how essential it is to speak this.
