SASSGO is a nonprofit organization that is on a mission to protect women and girls from assault and exploitation through education, self-defense, and community empowerment. This episode continues our special month-long series on SASSGO and the transformative I Will Survive Weekend — and Micki, Mesa, and Ellen each bring their own unique story to the conversation. In this episode, you’ll hear: ✨ How Micki, a yoga instructor, was sent to a SASSGO training by her boss and discovered a deeper sense of strength and empowerment — sparking her passion to protect and train other women and girls; ✨ Mesa’s courageous journey as a college student and member of the University of Utah track team when her teammate Lauren McCluskey was tragically murdered — and how that trauma led Mesa to SASSGO and a mission to ensure no woman ever feels powerless again; ✨ Ellen’s story as a mother whose daughter, Carly, was assaulted in college — and how SASSGO gave her family the tools, hope, and strength to heal and fight back, inspiring Ellen to become an instructor herself; ✨ How each of these women turned trauma into purpose and now travel the country empowering others through SASSGO’s life-saving programs; ✨ The critical importance of training, education, and community when it comes to women’s safety and freedom; ✨ How you can support this movement and be part of the solution; ✨ And so much more! 🌟 Learn more and support the mission: SASSGO.org 🎧 Listen and Subscribe: Don’t miss this powerful, inspiring episode — and so many others!
