TEACH US CONSENT! Uncut with Chanel Contos

Welcome to your Tuesday Lifers. We have a really big important episode for you today, we're talking about consent!

Chanel Contos is the woman behind the Teach Us Consent movement, which led to the curriculum in every state of Australia to include consent education - and it all started with an instagram poll.

In this chat we talk about:

-What is rape culture, and how it exists in Australia

-What is pressurised sex

-How our societal views of consent and sex have evolved and where we have to go

-How Chanel has helped change consent education across the whole country

Chanel is a powerhouse and a young woman who won't be stopping any time soon!
