She speaks about writing 'South of Forgiveness,' where she confronts her assaulter and heals the young sixteen year-old who's been holding a heavy secret. She reflects on corresponding with him to write the book, the global response to their story, and the importance of dialogue in changing the narrative around sexual violence. Thordis also discusses the importance of believing and supporting survivors of sexual assault.
