The Sacred Space with Nadejeh Minerva

The Sacred Space

Tune in TONIGHT as we discuss The Self Care Healing Journey After Surviving Sexual Assault & Domestic Violence with Nadejeh Minerva. Good self-care can be especially difficult for survivors of sexual violence and their loved ones. However, self-care is an important part of the healing process and can help make the impacts of trauma more manageable. Nadejeh is a current student at Hampton University. She created #MSIB in part because of the loss of her cousin Danielle and grandmother Minerva. Her second reason is because as a survivor of sexual assault and domestic violence she understands the toll it can take on a woman's mind, body, and spirit. She wants every woman to thrive the way she as, but understands it's not easy to do alone. The #MyStrengthIsBeautiful Campaign first began as an idea in 2016 to founder Nadejeh Minerva. #MSIB took effect in 2017, building its way towards its goals and mission. #MSIB was started to empower women everywhere who have been affected by sexual assault and domestic violence. The organization is meant to empower the emotional, physical, mental, social, and professional development of a woman, and will eventually open its arms to assist men as well. ​ #MyStrengthIsBeautiful's mission is, to change the way survivors are viewed by the world and the way they view themselves. This will be done through workshops, seminars, large scale events, and everyday outreach. #MyStrengthIsBeautiful believes that every young girl and woman deserves the chance to fulfill their purpose in life, and together it will be possible. www.instagram.com/msibforever https://www.msibforever.org --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thesacredspace/support
