Monica Lewinsky
Public humiliation is a commodity and shame is an industry.
Monica Lewinsky
I was Patient Zero. The first person to have their reputation completely destroyed worldwide via the Internet.
Monica Lewinsky

Monica Lewinsky
Public shaming is a blood sport that has to stop.
Monica Lewinsky
Do you want me to answer that?
Monica Lewinsky
Try and have neutral compassion toward the perpetrator. Step outside the sting of the incident and realize that this person is trying to erase their own inadequacy or unhappiness by transferring it to you. It won't make the incident go away, but it's one thing you can do to reduce the pain.
Monica Lewinsky
Feeling alone and unseen can intensify the experience of being harassed, shamed, or bullied.
Monica Lewinsky
Getting and keeping my immunity became very important to me. For I needed to take care of myself and my family. No one else was worried about me.
Monica Lewinsky
Let's acknowledge the difference between speaking up with intention and speaking up for attention.
Monica Lewinsky
