Question:
What drew you to the podcast?
 Sheldon's Answer:
Early in my professional career, I worked at a local domestic violence shelter. I witnessed firsthand the effects of abuse both domestically and professionally. I first was drawn to listening to the podcast because of my interest in raising awareness of domestic abuse. I was immersed in the podcast because of the empowerment I know it can provide to anyone who listens to it.
