Send us Fan Mail

Behavioural psychotherapist and body-language expert Gayatree Dipchan shares the deeply personal story of surviving a violent sexual assault—and the long journey from trauma to healing, purpose and peace.

Gayatree opens up about the night that changed the course of her life, the relationships that helped her survive, raising and protecting her daughter, and why she refuses to let her most traumatic experience define the rest of her story.

We also explore what our bodies communicate when words cannot, the cultural norms that leave children vulnerable, and what it truly takes to move beyond being a victim—not only to survive, but to thrive.
