🦩Finding The Truth

Trigger warning: This episode discusses childhood sexual abuse, trauma and the delayed realisation of abuse. Please take care while listening.

In 2020, in her 40s, Tara Thompson realised that she had been sexually abused as a child.

In this deeply honest conversation, Tara talks about the experience of finding out something that had been hidden from her for so many years, and the questions, emotions and memories that followed.

She shares what it meant to understand her childhood through a completely different lens, the importance of being believed, and why speaking out has become such an important part of taking her power back.

Tara also talks about justice, the courage it can take to tell your story, and the reality that for many survivors, the journey doesn't begin until long after the abuse has happened.

One in four women and one in six men experience sexual abuse before the age of 18 in Ireland. Tara's story is a reminder of why we need to listen, believe and keep talking about it.

This is a difficult conversation, but an important one — about truth, survival, power and finding your voice
