I’m so thankful for this podcast. This is the first meaningful support I have found. I am a family member of a victim and the stress has been overwhelming. After listening to other stories, I do not feel like I am crazy for establishing boundaries. I want to help as an advocate for victims and families in the future. Right now, I’m prayerfully taking it one day at a time.
