Episode 14: We care: Domestic Abuse Awareness

In this episode of Life Lessons, Gin and Sheri talk to Aryn Quinn of We Care. 

Today's episode covers a topic that we all need to hear, even if we are ourselves in a healthy relationship. Did you know that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men have experienced some form of physical violence by an intimate partner?  Domestic abuse is not always physical, however, and today's guest Aryn Quinn will help identify all forms of abuse and the warning signs.  Knowing the early warning signs may just keep you or someone you love from harm, and maybe it's your daughter, son, sister, brother, or friend.  

Aryn believes that it is time to break the silence and shame that surrounds domestic abuse. She started an organization that provides education to people of all ages as well as support and education for those who are recovering from abuse in an effort to break the cycle of abuse that is often perpetuated for generations.
