Did you know:

• 1 in 5 women will be sexually assaulted while in college or graduate school
• 6% of men will be sexually assaulted while in college or graduate school
• 90% of sexual assaults on college campuses go unreported.
• More than 50% of college sexual assaults occur in either August, September, October, or November. This is called the "Red Zone"

In the latest episode, I have a deeply personal and tough discussion with my brave guest, Anne, who unveils her own experience of sexual assault in college. The goal is to shed light on the emotional aftermath of such incidents, often unspoken, which includes anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
Also joining in the conversation is private investigator, Sally Tierney. Sally aided Anne in discovering the identity of her attacker and has helped many other clients gain control of their experiences.
This is a difficult, but necessary conversation and I hope you will join us.
This is not just an episode, but a testament to the resilience of survivors and the strength of those who stand with them.
