I do think talking about it, like you said, is probably the best thing, one, for you, therapy, and two, that's your testimony, something that you've survived and that you've gone through.
So maybe people are able to connect with you if they were to know more details of what had happened or what is going on.
Yeah, I mean, I think it's just this is sad, but from reading so many legal documents about assaults, because, again, I didn't understand the situation that I became a part of, which was like a sexual assault like problem and.
so my lawyers just kept sending me a lot of like legal documents to read of like Jane does.
So I like would understand what it looks like, why this happens, like all these things.
And then I got so interested in it and so passionate that I was like, Oh, I'm going to go get a legal degree.
Um, I went down there, I got my paralegal certificate and I'm getting ready to do a JD in law.
the comment like this is so weird that this happened at this time in my life but I saw like innocent people not being believed and then I saw a lot of people who actually lied this could be men or women or
lie about being sexually assaulted.
And I think learning from lawyers what we're looking at, how we're seeing that, how this comes up, you really know to fight for your truth, to stand firm.
Because others who lie and kind of like predator
like men or women who they claim that they were assaulted by um that's like a whole other psychological thing so I think there's like a lot of trauma work no matter what even if you're lying about it if you're telling the truth I've been going through all this stuff and breaking that down because I started writing a screenplay about it and I used it in one of my Harvard classes for screenwriting and I got to see it like acted out with actors and read and I think like
Maybe just for me, I would feel safer showing that in like an artistic form, like a series.
And I love watching movies and TV series that really help comfort people who are actually really going through a long, long legal battle.
With sexual assault, because I think like Sophia showed me some funny episode on Shameless about one of the guys like pretending that he got sexually assaulted and going in and going through this whole process.
And I think sometimes you need.
You need someone like my daughter to let you laugh and make light of a really deep, dark situation that I was put on medication for.
The medication wasn't helping.
