This episode is a departure from our normal topics, and an important one. Ella asks black belt M. Aziz about personal safety and the importance of self-defense.

Note: the 2nd half of this episode gets more explicit (starting ~min 26), so take care when/where you listen. {originally aired in 2017}

We discuss:

• Staying safe in parking lots and garages.
• Staying safe while exercising alone.
• The role of body language & awareness of our surroundings
• Maintaining safety when coming home or leaving home.
• The risks posed by acquaintances and known individuals.
• Staying safe while meeting people you met online.
• Recognizing concerning behaviors in acquaintances & potential partners.
• Using technology to enhance personal safety.
• The importance of letting someone know your location.
• Resistance and Evasion Techniques - Basic Self-Defense Tips.
