Using a mix of poetry and narrative, Rupi Kaur weaves together a powerful and cathartic story - which in spite of great trauma, ends where it begins - by restoring the feeling of home within your body.

Warning: this talk contains descriptions of sexual violence which may be triggering to survivors.
