Serving Those Who Served: Sexual Violence and Military Survivors with Dr. Yaniris Garcia-Soto
What does it look like to support survivors of sexual violence who are serving, or have served, in the military? In this episode of Teal Talk, Laurie sits down with Dr. Garcia-Soto to talk about the unique experiences of military survivors and the ways military culture, systems, and expectations can shape how someone experiences and responds to sexual violence.
Whether you work directly with survivors, serve military-connected communities, or simply want to better understand the realities of sexual violence in the military, this episode offers practical insight and a deeper look at how we can better support those who have served.

The Conversation We Need to Have About Elder Sexual Abuse with CeCe Norwood of Nirvana Now!
When people think about sexual violence, older adults are often left out of the conversation. But sexual violence doesn't have an age limit, and neither does the need for support, dignity, and autonomy.
In this episode of Teal Talk, Laurie sits down with advocate and educator CeCe Norwood to explore the realities of elder abuse and sexual violence in later life. Together, they discuss why these experiences are so often overlooked; how ageism can prevent older survivors from being believed; and what advocates, caregivers, family members, and communities can do to create safer, more supportive environments.

The Threads That Tie Our Work Together with Laurie Hurley of OAESV
After 36 conversations with advocates, researchers, policymakers, healthcare professionals, and movement leaders, we decided to switch things up. Instead of welcoming another guest, our host Laurie is taking a step back to reflect on the ideas that have stayed with her the most. While every Teal Talk episode has explored a different topic, many of the same themes kept resurfacing.
In this solo episode, Laurie shares what surprised her, what challenged her, and what she's learned about hope, collaboration, leadership, survivor-centered advocacy, and sustaining ourselves in this work. Think of it as a conversation to connect the dots between the stories we've shared over the past five seasons.
Whether you've listened since episode 1 or you're just discovering Teal Talk, we hope this conversation reminds you why this work matters and why none of us do it alone.
