Alison Jennings - Surviving and Healing After Sexual Assault

***TRIGGER WARNING*** THIS EPISODE CONTAINS DESCRIPTIONS OF MULTIPLE SEXUAL ASSAULTS.

 

WARNING! You may never look at football the same again. This episode is dedicated to bringing awareness to sexual violence against women and how victims of rape can move on and heal after sexual assault. 

 

Paula invited Alison Jennings on the show to share how hypnotherapy helped her to heal after a group of well-known football players gang-raped her. And here's the kicker. The police department destroyed evidence to cover it up and ensure she didn’t have a case. 

 

The traumatic events Alison suffered led her to become a spokesperson for RAINN, which is the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network. She also works with an organization called We Lead Athletes. Her story has been featured on the world's largest and most prestigious media networks, including Dateline, CNN, Fox News, the New York Times, and many more. 

 

After years of being a sexual assault speaker, Alison scaled her work, and now her speeches are dedicated to empowering women in general. You can also add singer-songwriter, visionary entrepreneur, Goddess of ideas, connoisseur of satire, and car lover to her long list of talents and interests.
