Shownotes

Let's talked about what it's like as a student/instructor when you find yourself in the middle of an abuse of power issue at your academy. I cover my own experiences and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with the entire ordeal. My hope is to shed some light on what some of this looks like for those going through it.

For anyone who's currently experiencing it, my heart goes out to you.
