ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Nicole is a victim-survivor, and she knows exactly how abuse needs silence to continue, especially in religious/insular contexts.
Nicole Meyer is a victim-survivor of Malka Leifer. She is committed to raising awareness of the impact of sexual abuse, specifically but not only female perpetrators, and the need for supporting survivors both in and out of the community.
She uses her own lived experience to support others and feels it is of absolute importance that communities, especially religious or insular communities are educated and made aware of how abuse thrives in silence.
Nicole hopes that speaking out will be inspiring and helpful for other survivors to feel validated and heard, particularly those in religious or insular communities who may not be able to use their voice or speak up.
She hopes to inspire destigmatisation and improve the approach by community leaders to survivors of sexual abuse. Nicole continues to connect with and support survivors and her advocacy work includes speaking at events, peer support work and connecting with many survivors privately on various social media platforms. She has commenced studying Law with the hope that in the near future she can use her lived experience to create change within the legal system.
