Michelle Jewsbury, founder of the non-profit organization Unsilenced Voices, joined the podcast to discuss her work helping survivors of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and human trafficking share their stories through book collaborations and public speaking. She shared her own experience as a domestic violence survivor and how it inspired her to start Unsilenced Voices and the book project 'Breaking the Silence: Voices of Survivors'. Jewsbury explained that the first volume of 'Breaking the Silence' was published in January 2024, with future volumes planned for October releases each year. The books give survivors a platform to share their stories and help others who have gone through similar traumatic experiences. She emphasized the importance of speaking up and using one's voice to heal and potentially save lives. The conversation also touched on the mental health crisis exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and isolation, as well as the disparities in access to medical care and resources in developing nations like Sierra Leone, where Unsilenced Voices does much of its work. Jewsbury invited listeners to support the organization's efforts to build a school with housing in Sierra Leone and a day center with wraparound services in Tampa.
