Alice joins Madeleine to discuss the likely spiking and sexual assault she was subjected to as a younger woman living in the UK.

Alice details in such a clear and articulate way the feelings so many victim survivors of sexual assault have. And the healing journey she has been on in order to start addressing the trauma she set aside for so many years.

Author and survivor of csa Shannon Molloy joins Madeleine to talk about his new book 'You Made Me This Way' and the story's and stars aligning that led to this being created. Part memoir, part self-help, part investigative journalism deep-dive in the taboo topic of male child sexual abuse, You Made Me This Way is driven by Shannon revealing his own experience of having been sexually abused as a young child, and his grappling to understand how this has shaped him. And in doing so, gives voice to a shared trauma of sexually abused men in an attempt to understand the traumatic long-term effects of male child abuse and the way in which society supports (or doesn't support) survivors. The majority of men sexually abused as children never speak about their past and hide their shame and trauma away, forever carrying an enormous burden on their own, often with terrible consequences. I am so thrilled to have had the opportunity to speak with Shannon, and to read this amazing book.
