Send us some love
We love to be generous. We love to know that people who might not be able to afford this book are able to read the book in full for free online. But we also love to receive generosity. It helps us know that our work is valued and that people care that we can continue to keep putting beautiful things out there in the world. The Consent Collective is an independent social-enterprise. We don't receive any funding for our work. We're proud to generate an income selling our resources and use any profit to fund the things we don't get paid for. Things like the free read of 'The courage to be me', 'El coraje de ser yo' and our social justice work as we focus our efforts on how people heal from the injustices caused by sexual harm and relationship abuse. We could do more of this with your support.

The English sequel to 'The courage to be me'
How do you follow-up 'The courage to be me?'. In 2021 I built my answer to that question. I wanted to create something that had just as much heart as the book but could take the material further and offer people some pragmatic steps on their healing journey.
My story continues...
I'm writing a new chapter in my life that I hope one day will become another book. In September 2021 my partner and I left our home, put all of our belongings in storage, and started travelling around the UK in our gorgeous sign-written van.
Our hope is that the end of this road we will open a retreat centre for our work somewhere in the UK countryside. A space for survivors. A space for activists. A space where nature can help us on our path. Until then, we are travelling and holding circles around the question 'How do people heal from injustice?'.
Once again I find myself humbled in the presence of others.
