When I was in high school, I was sexually assaulted in a football hazing ritual. I had the courage to come forward about the assault, but my high school concealed it. Still, I fought with all of the strength in my being to end hazing at my school. I succeeded, but that is not the whole story. After suffering seven long years of confusion, sadness, pain, and anger, I entered therapy. I grew strong as I released the unnecessary pain, shame, and guilt surrounding the assault. As I developed emotionally, I confronted key figures from my past, and I rejoiced as I achieved new levels of personal growth. Come with me as I heal, grow, and love. Come with me as I experience my redemption.
