<p>In this episode, we sat down and talked with L (She/They) who is a sexual health educator, survivor, and advocate for survivors.</p><p>"L is a sexual health educator, teaching in New York City, and completed a Master’s degree in Sexology. L has a passion for sexual and reproductive health, consent, pleasure, sexual ethics, harm reduction, and relationship skills.</p><p>L is motivated to be in this field due to their own experiences of long-term CSA and experiences of abuse in adulthood, including experiencing intimate partner violence. As a child, she had some knowledge about anatomy and physiology, but almost no context or understanding of healthy relationships and pleasure until later in adolescence. L wanted to understand and improve abuse response and prevention, particularly focusing on child and adolescent mental health, completing this in her undergraduate degree. After learning the incredible impacts of comprehensive relationships and sexuality education, she realized how much violence and abuse can be prevented by providing comprehensive sexuality education for everyone. It is never too late to learn, and never too early to start."</p><p>You can follow L on social media, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/l-cassidy/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/l-cassidy/</a></p><p></p>
