In this week’s episode, Madigan shares the story of the brave former skater, Ashley Foy, who came forward as the victim of sexual assault by another former skater, Nikolaj Sørensen.
Beyond Ashley’s story, Madigan shares incidents involving other skaters and coaches who have perpetrated violent acts against young female skaters, and the environment in the world of figure skating that enables abusers, and silences survivors.
