b'Welcome to Start By Listening! We are excited to have you on this journey with us toward healing and transformation.\\xa0\\xa0Start By Listening is a podcast about sexual harm, trauma and advocacy.\\xa0\\xa0Season Three - Hodge Podge - We are taking SBL to the community and speaking with various groups and people on the traumas they encounter in their part of the community and asking how they may want their organization to address trauma survivors in the future. This season, we will be delivering exceptional conversations and creative ideas while creating a safe space for connection and thoughtful experiences. We are going beyond sexual harm and really asking, "What does trauma look like and what does this experience look like for the Western Kentucky communities we serve?" We will be talking with various community members, and delving into difficult conversations where trauma intersects our communities and people.
