Episode notes

You should never have to walk around not feeling safe just because you are a woman. Being a victim of a crime is horrendous that can cause lifelong trauma and setbacks. There are some stats that report over 40% of women in the U.S. have encountered sexual violence in their life. While fighting back can feel scary and impossible whether you’re five feet tall or 6 feet tall, the alternative of not fighting back is even scarier.

In this episode Lisa brings on a 3rd Black Belt Badass to share her moves, tips, and tactics to defend yourself, stand up for yourself, and love yourself through it all. Jenn Cassetta has appeared on national television, and has helped brands such as Apple, Nike, and Uber teach self defense for women. After being attacked herself near her home late one night, she took her fear to a dojo and learned how to fight back and master her thinking.
