Nobody Dances Here Radio and Blog brings to you new and fresh talent, ideas, discussion, and of course your celebrity gossip! Starting this season off, NDH Radio takes a different turn and treats it’s listeners to a serious interview on a topic of violence with Karli Butler, a motivational speaker/ survivor and positive role model in the community, who shares a riveting tale of survival at its best. Also, later in the show, our topic becomes a little lighter with our next special guest, Elgin Smith, a graphic illustrator, who talks about her many experiences and artwork.

Karli Butler has endured her fair share of extreme adversity in life, but instead of dwelling on life’s downs, Ms. Butler has decided to share her story and speak out against violence and prevention to the youth in her community. Ms. Butler shares a story filled with the pain only a true survivor could know, but also the urgency of education and violence prevention that comes with such a story.

“My primary focus is discussion-based lectures pertaining to self-esteem, smart relationship decisions, and being a survivor of violence. I give advice on how to make smart dating decisions and stress the importance of knowing your partner. Most importantly, I try to demonstrate how self-esteem comes from within and can empower and heal the body and mind,” states Ms. Butler.

Elgin Smith is a graphic illustrator who also blogs on her various experiences. Smith has a unique gift in expressing different visions through innovative cartoon illustrations.
