No Means No

As Rosa worked through her struggles in attempts to rid herself of the demons, she realized how many times she was violently forced to release her body to the abuser in spite of the loud cries of ‘No.’

She was forced to perform acts that she was not prepared for. She was told on many occasions by the abuser that he had full ownership and that her body was his property. She was forced to surrender to him after each abusive incident. She was validated by her therapist and now understands that she had experienced many forms of violence.

She was educated about the true meaning of ‘No means No ‘and that she’s the only one in control of her body. She learned that violence comes in many forms and she was a victim. A bright light was lit and she reassured the warriors that change was here to stay and she was heading to her destiny. She felt stronger!
