Reuben Williams

Because the life you have now, it started with that decision to speak up, to not let your power be taken.

I know you only did it out of self-preservation, to not find out what holding onto trauma would be like.

But instead, you proved something to yourself.

You can do a hard thing.

And because of this, nothing seems insurmountable anymore.

Without this, would you have had the confidence to go after your dreams, to travel the world, to build a business you love, to trust in strangers even when you have every reason not to?

You designed your ideal life and you made it happen.

Because you enjoyed this, nothing seems insurmountable anymore.

This decision might have put you through six years of hell, but it set up the next 60 years to be amazing.

Thanks for speaking up, mate.

Beautiful.

Thank you for reading that.

Yes, because by this point, I'd had six years of conversations with people about it.

And it became quite obvious to me how prevalent this issue was in society.

Yeah, men as well.

I had a lot of people reach out to me.

So during this period, I...

I was basically documenting the life of a, of a victim going through the court case.

And, um, you know, on the day of the magistrate's court when he was found guilty, that's when I first went public and said like, Hey, this happened to me.

And I started to share a bit more of my experience after that.
