Being emotionally vulnerable on national television is hard enough - but to expose your deepest wound, your biggest trauma, and your saddest injustice for the world to see takes a true act of selfless courage. I know that her willingness to relive that horrible experience has impacted so many lives and has encouraged other survivors to come forward - I know this, because I’m one of them.

Like Caelynn, I was drugged and r*ped by someone who I thought was a friend. I woke up with a bruised body, a broken spirit, and a fractured sense of security that has never fully recovered. Survivors know: when the illusion of safety is shattered by the reality of wickedness, you lose a piece of yourself.. permanently.

But our scars tell a story of eternal fortitude: we are changed, but we are here. We are survivors. We are indestructible.
Caelynn, thank you for your graceful resolve in the face of adversity. Your bravery gave me the courage I needed to share my story, and I am forever grateful for your fearlessness, and for your friendship. It’s poetic that a show about roses has allowed us to share our stories with the world - because a rose is a perennial flower. Perennial means “lasting or existing for an infinite time; continually enduring.” So let’s start a new rose challenge: if you or someone you love is a survivor of sexual assault, please comment below with a rose. Let’s stand in solidarity to remind each other that we are not alone, that together we are unbreakable - and that our fight, our courage, and our strength.. like a rose.. is continually enduring.

Beautifully written. I cannot imagine the horror of being drugged and taken advantage of. It takes a lot of courage to talk about these types of situations but just coming forward and revealing what happened hopefully will help others heal.
