CW: Sexual Assault
This episode contains conversations surrounding sexual assault and its effects on the mind. Viewer/Listener discretion is advised for anyone who may be sensitive to these topics.
Joining us today on the ITBR is Dr. Frank Spinelli! Frank is a physician, health coach, author, and passionate advocate whose groundbreaking work bridges healthcare, storytelling, and social justice.
He brings a level of vulnerability that is raw and full of passion. Frank opens up about experiencing childhood abuse at the hands of his scoutmaster, and how organizations like the Boy Scouts and the Catholic Church enable abuse by prioritizing institutional reputation over child safety. From personal life stories to wanting to help the broader public, specifically the LGBTQ community, heal from their traumas--Frank shows us how we can differentiate our guilt and shame and rework our traumatic experiences into a life worth living.
