Always

I was invited by P&G’s menstrual pad brand, Always, to participate in their “Fala Always” event, which focused on raising awareness about domestic violence and abusive relationships. The event took place in Recife, a vibrant city in northeastern Brazil, and was held in a public space at a shopping mall, making it accessible to anyone who wanted to attend. With free entry, snacks, and an open seating arrangement, the event provided a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere for the community.

During the event, I had the opportunity to share my personal story of surviving domestic violence alongside other speakers who contributed their own experiences and insights. The day was filled with powerful discussions that aimed to break the silence surrounding this issue and empower attendees with knowledge and support. It was a deeply impactful experience to speak openly about such an important cause and connect with an audience who was eager to learn and engage.

After our individual talks, we held a debate, answered questions from the audience, and promoted discussions around abusive relationships. It was an enriching and emotional experience to raise awareness and contribute to a dialogue that seeks to protect and save women facing domestic violence.
