    A memoir recounting the author’s journey of confronting childhood sexual abuse and the subsequent path to healing and truth-telling. Griffin, initially a high-achieving individual suppressing trauma, undergoes psychedelic-assisted therapy where repressed memories surface. The book details her struggle to reconcile with the past, the impact on her relationships, and the societal pressures that contributed to the silence surrounding abuse. Ultimately, “The Tell” explores the power of vulnerability, the courage to face one’s truth, and the transformative potential of sharing one’s story.
