Description
In episode 2, Grace has the pleasure and honour of speaking to the incredible Natasha O' Brien. Natasha is a human rights activist whose voice has been instrumental in addressing gender-based violence in Ireland and the flaws in our justice system.
Grace and Natasha discuss Natasha's experience of being the victim of a violent attack and navigating the extremely challenging legal process. And because Natasha is - like so many of us - much more than a victim, we talk about lots more too, including sex education, supporting a partner who has been sexually assaulted and approaching the delicate situation of when you can't stand your loved one's new partner!
Please read on further for info on support services related to the topics discussed.
