Please note, this episode of Untethered carries a content warning for discussion of childhood sexual abuse. There are no graphic descriptions of abuse, but there are some details shared around certain manipulative behaviours used to facilitate it.
I'm joined this week by my very good friend Sarah*. When Sarah was 10 years old, her father was arrested for perpetrating childhood sexual abuse against her and some of her neighbourhood friends. Now in her 50s, Sarah joins me to talk about untethering from shame, self recrimination and what-ifs...and what it means for her personally to have chosen to feel compassion for a father who also abused her.
