This is an episode of my podcast, How Not To Twenty. Available on Spotify, Apple and Amazon music.This week, we’re delving into a complex and deeply personal topic that’s been on my mind — especially with April being Sexual Assault Awareness Month and reflecting on Netflix's "Adolescence".However, this is not an episode about SA, but instead about consent — and how, as a young woman, there can be moments where you’ve shared an experience that, deep down, you didn’t truly want.While creating this episode, I realized I’ve never actually had a healthy, open conversation about consent — and that’s exactly why this felt so important to share with you.We explore themes like rejection culture, self-worth, and the lack of meaningful education around what consent really looks and feels like.If anything discussed in this episode resonates or brings up difficult feelings, I’ve included links to organizations and services that support people dealing with related challenges.Links:Womens Aid: https://www.womensaid.org.uk/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwzMi_BhACEiwAX4YZUPHZJLrsbxol0ywl64byIhZmDC2gxVsALL76ee8Dg-_7DDsaNyQYAhoCiBsQAvD_BwEMale Survivor Partnership: https://malesurvivor.co.uk/Victim Support: https://www.victimsupport.org.uk/NSPCC: https://www.nspcc.org.uk/ 🎙️ @_catriona_walshx_
