ABOUT THE GUEST
Inspire Heal Empower: A TRUE STORY OF FINDING YOUR VOICE BREAKING THE SILENCE & TRUSTING ONE’S KNOWIN
“This is my story - in 1984 at the age of 15 years old, I was admitted for an eye operation into a hospital. Whilst in hospital I was made to undergo, without my consent, what I would for many years call an inappropriate medical examination. It has taken many years for me to break the silence that surrounds that day and give what happened to me its correct title and name - sexual assault. I also share some of my writings, poems and the tools that I use and which are intended to INSPIRE, HEAL & EMPOWER others. With my life experiences and my coaching skills, I have been able to finally look at, deal with and work through the mental and emotional challenges that trauma caused. And to let it go back to who it truly belongs to, the person who chose to violate and sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl. Jacqui Taaffe is an executive life coach, mentor, educator and trainer with over 25 years managerial experience in the development and progression of people.”
