This episode is the first departure, I think, from a story about an attack to a story about recovery. In this episode, I wanted to share what the aftershock of leaving the hospital and trying to piece together a new life felt like, along with my family and the friendships that were willing to stick it through.

Episode 04: A New Normal

Welcome to Extraordinary, my retelling of the story of my almost rape and violent stabbing in 2018 from my perspective, as well as from the perspectives of some of my closest friends and family. My hope is that this story, and the stories of the extraordinary people who helped me along the way, will inspire a better understanding of the effects of extreme violence, PTSD and recovery on individuals and the people supporting them. Thank you so much for listening, and you can follow along on our Instagram account, @extraordinary.podcast, to see the photos, video and helpful resources that correspond to the content of every episode. 

And please, if you are a survivor or someone suffering from the effects of sexual assault, violence, or PTSD, take care while listening.
