A childhood consumed by abuse, an adulthood transformed by self-compassion

Content warning: This video contains themes of sexual abuse. If you think it may be triggering for you please take care when listening. The thoughts and opinions expressed by our contributors are not necessarily those held by Something to Say.

Violet's earliest childhood memory is of being abused. She was prostituted by her mother from a young age, then "bought" by her grandfather to suffer yet more.

At some point, she turned the page, and started writing her own story. She now has an organisation that supports others who have suffered.

This is a heartbreakingly honest story, from a woman who has found hope where we might assume there was none to be found. As Violet says, "As long as you are breathing, there is hope".

"Transforming pain into compassion is the alchemy of the soul, where wounds become wisdom and empathy blooms from the depths of our own suffering."
