Today I'm joined by Elicia Ybarra to tackle one of the most important—and often overlooked—conversations around self-defense and safety for women. Elicia shares her deeply personal story of resilience, healing, and how Pretty Hands, Hard Punches was born out of her own lived experience. We dig into the myths and misconceptions about self-defense, why boundaries are the cornerstone of safety, and how physical, emotional, and mental self-protection all go hand-in-hand. Whether you’ve personally faced abuse, want to feel more empowered, or are raising daughters and wondering how to keep them safe without living in constant fear, this conversation is equal parts sobering and empowering.
