The mission and history of the SWEET Survivor Resource Group

 🦋SWEET = SURVIVORS WORKING TO END EXPLOITATION AND TRAFFICKING!🎯

Hi, and Welcome to SWEET! I’m Linda Kay Gifford, CSA Survivor, NLP specializing in CSA-related cPTSD and Relational Sexuality, and founder of The SWEET Survivor Resource Group.

   I survived seven years of childhood sexual grooming and assault and, after a musical career that spans three decades, three sons, and includes openers with Willie Nelson and an International Bluegrass Music Award (IBMA) and Grammy Nomination as a songwriter, I took out the “notes” and began to write in earnest about my experience as an adult survivor of childhood sexual grooming and assault, one of the most egregious and destructive kinds of personal horrors a child - adolescent- teen could be forced to bear and remember.

   After decades of various therapy and research, I found that neurolinguistic programming was the key to personal discovery and change, and became a Neurolinguistic Practitioner (NLP) specializing in cPTSD and Relational Sexuality.

   Recently, Joyce M. Short, fellow CSA and SA Survivor and founder of The Consent Awareness Network, #CAN, reached out to me, thanking me for my efforts with SWEET Survivor, and asked me to advocate for federal consent legislation. I am thrilled to embark on my first public speaking tour, presenting my Thrive in S-P-A-D-E-S! Method and Call it Assault! Advocacy to Survivors, partners, and support personnel; advocating for personal, societal, and legislative change.

I host two Video Podcasts…

 ~ My “Thrive in SPADES! Six Steps from Trigger to Happy!” Free LIVE CSA cPTSD Workshops are developed from my own triumph over a heart and life previously ruled by shame, fear of discovery, and cPTSD, and…

 ~ Those Nasty Women TALK! The Women’s Video Podcast for Men, too! Interact with me, personally and take a broader dive into sexual and societal issues as a whole… socially, politically, nationally, historically, anthropologically, ALL the “-lys”!
