In this episode, we meet musician, vocalist, actress, new author, and community volunteer and activist, Courtney Santana. As a survivor of domestic violence and abuse, Courtney takes her experience and gives back in order to ensure opportunities for other domestic violence victims and survivors are in place. This includes guiding them to be served by the right people, helping them build strategic plans, and providing connections to safe environments in order to reduce homelessness and repetitive behavior. (Warning: this episode contains frank descriptions of domestic abuse.)Courtney's new book, 'Off Kilter: Getting Yourself "Right" After Abuse':https://amzn.to/2Bp6JMQ (https://amzn.to/2Bp6JMQ)For more information to volunteer, support, or connect with Courtney Santana:https://www.facebook.com/CourtneySantanaMusic/ (https://www.facebook.com/CourtneySantanaMusic/)https://twitter.com/courtneydoingit (https://twitter.com/courtneydoingit)and Survive2Thrive Foundation:https://survive2thrivefoundation.org (https://survive2thrivefoundation.org)https://www.facebook.com/Survive2ThriveFoundation/ (https://www.facebook.com/Survive2ThriveFoundation/)https://twitter.com/S2TFoundation (https://twitter.com/S2TFoundation)Hosted by Natalie Phillips.
