I’m grateful that the Epstein stuff is being talked about. Why?!? Over 50% of men and women have experienced s*xual abuse in their lifetime.
Statistically — and in my work — I have seen even higher numbers. BUT pause with that. If you’re sitting in a room with four people, at least two of them have had their sovereignty violated. Their dignity stripped. Their sense of self fractured. They have had to claw their way back to worth.
And if you know me, you know I believe in post-traumatic growth — not just PTSD. I have walked alongside hundreds of survivors of trafficking and s*xual abuse as they reclaimed not only their worth, but their power and purpose. I have done my own healing from actual pedophilism and abuse. So I’m not speaking theoretically.
🐻❤️ I have witnessed the human spirit rise from devastation and become medicine for the world.
So excuse me if I’m not shocked that the Epstein conversation is finally exploding into public awareness.
But let’s be clear.
This isn’t just about Epstein.
It’s not just about one man or one network.
We live inside a culture that normalizes exploitation.
A culture that commodifies bodies.
A culture that protects power over people.
And here’s something many don’t know:
Michigan — because of the Canadian border — is a human trafficking hub.
We still punish s*x workers more aggressively than the Johns.
More aggressively than the traffickers.
We target the easiest person to arrest — often the very person who was coerced, groomed, or economically trapped.
Why?
Because dismantling the actual power structures would require courage.
It would require looking at patriarchy, colonization, and power-over systems — not as “men vs. women,” not as a culture war — but as a system that siphons energy, money, and life from women, children, marginalized communities, animals, and the Earth itself.
Stop arguing about the details of the Epstein files.
It’s a stupid waste of time.
Stop the culture war so we can see there is an elite few siphoning from our children, nature… from US.
Can’t you see it?!?
I am now serving on a task force for human trafficking survivors, working to change legislation. And let me tell you — the system is not designed to protect the vulnerable. It is designed to maintain control.
This conversation is overdue.
Because it’s not just about elite corruption.
It’s about whether children — of any gender — are safe in our society.
It’s about whether we continue normalizing domination as strength.
It’s about whether we keep pretending the problem is isolated.
It’s not isolated.
My dissertation research — a multi-modality Ecopsychology approach to Healing Trauma — is in its final stages this year. I’m excited for every trauma center in the U.S., for traditional therapists to understand nature as a fundamental part of healing deep trauma — not just a pretty backdrop.
A small number of people extract power from bodies, from nature, from animals, from systems — and we call it normal.
The Matrix wasn’t science fiction.
It was metaphor.
And healing isn’t just personal.
It’s radical.
Rebellious.
A reclaiming of one’s fundamental wholeness.
Healing isn’t just personal.
It’s ecological.
It’s cultural.
It’s legislative.
It’s systemic.
