What They Don’t Say The Podcast
est. 2023
Our origin story
What They Don’t Say the podcast (WTDS for short) was launched to shine a light on issues that face survivors of assault and abuse but with a bit of a twist. We were sick of the dark, unapproachable conversations that enabled a taboo nature around sexual violence. It is time to break down the discomfort and have digestible, inclusive, educational conversations. Dark jokes are a survival kit here.
Our MIssion
At What They Don’t Say, we want survivors of sexual assault to feel seen, heard, and supported. We’re here to break down the isolation that so many survivors experience by sharing our own stories, bringing in experts, and having real conversations with others who’ve lived through it. We aim to create a space for solidarity, raise awareness, and help people feel empowered in their own healing journeys through getting real about trauma and what it does to us, showing that healing doesn’t look the same for everyone. We’re here to show that sharing your story and seeking healing, whatever that looks like for you, are powerful steps toward reclaiming your life, your voice, and your power. Sexual assault is an epidemic that affects everyone, but it’s still something that makes people uncomfortable to talk about. If we can’t talk about it, how are we ever going to change it?
