Do you want to know what steps you can take to educate and protect the children in your life from sexual abuse? Of course you do.

When it comes to childhood sexual abuse, we can no longer put our heads in the sand. I know it's a heavy topic, but one that requires awareness and education around what steps can be taken to both prevent and take action to protect children from sexual harm. 

After recently waking up to the extent of paedophilia right here in Australia and having another eye opening conversation in episode 28, I wanted to do more. 

 I recently ordered a copy of the childhood picture book 'Only For Me' and invited author, Michelle Derrig to continue this conversation and help keep our children safe. 

Michelle Derrig is a passionate child protection advocate, mother to four and author of the best selling picture book Only For Me, which very gently teaches young children about consent and body safety. Only For Me is endorsed by one of Australia's leading child protection organisations Act For Kids, is a triple best seller in Australia and recently hit #1 Best Seller in children's safety book on Amazon US. 

Her mission is to raise awareness and educate parents and carers about the reality of childhood sexual abuse and how to go about empowering and protecting the young children in their care.

In episode 33, Michelle explores:

• The most vulnerable ages for sexual abuse and the disturbing stats around child sexual abuse here in Australia.
• What signs and indications to look out for as a parent to pick up if a child has been sexually abused.
• What steps should to take if you suspect childhood sexual abuse has occurred.
• Important steps to take, to educate children and keep them safe from sexual harm.
