In this week's episode, D.J. talks with a friend and colleague, Liz, who reached out to D.J. for help sharing her story of what it was like to be a sexual assault survivor while being in a relationship. Liz talks about an important topic we need to talk more about. Even in a relationship, you have the right to say 'no' or 'not yet' and have your boundaries respected. When that doesn't happen, shame, fear, guilt and anger can destroy you from the inside out. Liz opens up about her self-care practices which help her heal from past abuse.
