In this deeply moving episode, we sit down with Lisa, who bravely shares her harrowing journey of survival. From experiencing sexual violence as a teenager to enduring domestic abuse as an adult, Lisa has faced unimaginable challenges. On top of it all, she was unjustly separated from her daughter - another devastating chapter in her fight for justice.

 

Despite the pain, Lisa chooses to speak out, hoping her story will serve as a beacon of support for other women navigating similar experiences. Through resilience, courage, and the unyielding pursuit of change, she reminds us why speaking up matters.

 

This episode is a testament to survival, healing, and the strength found in sharing the truth. For anyone who has faced hardship, injustice, or loss -Lisa’s words may offer comfort, solidarity, and hope.
