This episode was made possible by our incredible patrons who faithfully give to support the Bodies Behind the Bus podcast.

We want to highlight just a few of those patrons right now.

A huge thank you goes out to Cambri M., Jacob F. Sarah C., Robert M., Matt B. Jared C. Aaron W. Kylie R. Hanna M. and Shasta B. Thank you all for

contributing and helping us to get these podcast episodes out there and for helping us to be able to

do the work behind the scenes that it takes to support storytellers

and getting their story out and into the world. So thank you all. And if you are a patron

and you did not hear your name just now, you will be hearing it on a future at the bus stop

episode because we're going to start doing these shoutouts at the top of these episodes.

So thank you and stay tuned. That will be happening soon. And if you haven't yet joined and

you'd like to support this work, you can do so by joining our Patreon community at the

link in bio. And you can also support us by subscribing, rating, and reviewing the podcast.

That really does help us so much more than you

know. We are honored to share this conversation with you today. We are joined by Colt Scholar

Daniela Mestinek Young, and we break down some of former storyteller, Mandy's story, through

Danielle's expert eyes. If you have not listened to Mandy's story yet,

now is the time to do that. You can hear it on episode 57. For today, we want to start out by giving

you all the trigger warnings. This episode contains topics pertaining to sexual abuse,

assault, pedophilia, suicide, child abuse, and coercive control.

If any of those topics are topics that you need to pause or skip this episode for, now is a good

time to do that.

Don't miss out on our show notes today.

We will have links to Danielle's book, as well as her socials.
