For our third season, we launched a special series: #HealMeToo #AtHome—with insights, art and activism to meet the needs of now.

Survivors and our communities have experienced many forms of trauma in this time, from racist violence against Black and Brown lives, to the triple-threat of Covid, confinement, and economic stress, each of which disproportionately impact Communities of Color—all set against the urgency of November’s elections and escalating Voter Suppression.

In the #HealMeToo #AtHome series, we widened our lens to address these many intersecting harms more directly. We asked advocates and healing practitioners to share stories we may not be hearing about, plus ideas, tools and actions that may help. We also shared more healing exercises than ever in Podcast Extras, so you can tap into them anytime.

For Season 3, we also became a Video Podcast to reach more survivors and allies on our new YouTube Channel, while we continue sharing our audio interviews on Apple and every podcast platform.


Season 2: Relationships

Season 2 offers performances, expert interviews, and practical suggestions for ways survivors and our allies can experience more healthy relationships and handle harmful ones – whether that’s in our communities, within our own bodies and ourselves, or in our intimate sexual lives. Some of the episodes and topics we had planned were interrupted by the shutdown, like healthy relationships at work. We plan to include them in Season 3.
