From Guilt to Grace: Understanding Sibling Sexual Trauma and Abuse

Jane Epstein shares her lived experience to shine a light on the often-overlooked issue of sibling sexual trauma and abuse. Through personal stories, survivor voices, and practical insights, she explores the myths, the impact on families, and the heavy role of guilt. She then shows what becomes possible when survivors, families, and even children who have caused harm are met with grace instead of silence or blame, offering a vision of resilience and healing that professionals can help make a reality.

The Long Run: Staying Human When the Stakes Are High

Jane Epstein doesn’t teach resilience from a textbook; she tells it from her life. In this candid, uplifting talk, Jane shares the moments that nearly stopped her, and the simple choices that kept her moving: telling the truth, asking for help, and starting again. She connects those lessons to everyday change. No jargon, no therapy advice, just lived experience turned into practical encouragement.
