'Outlander' Season 4: The many life lessons the show taught us about approaching rape victims and dealing with trauma

The last few episodes have been an excruciatingly painful watch but there have been lessons worthy to be preached and practiced to become better human beings today

'Outlander' season 4 has not been an easy watch but just like all the seasons so far, the time-traveling show gave us something to reflect upon, introspect, and learn. Season one was quick to teach us some of the crucial life lessons we never knew we needed. Talk about the sacrifices love entails, the deeper meaning of sex and how standing up for yourself is just as important as standing up for people you love.

As seasons progressed, 'Outlander' became a very personal watch, sometimes giving us the answers we were searching for. Season 4 started out with a new beginning, but note that the new beginning came after a catastrophic end — the shipwreck to be precise. Jamie Fraser and Claire Fraser pursued the American dream fraught with adversities and despite losing everything, including their money and gems, they could rebuild themselves from scratch.
