Cheryl is joined by her brother, Scott, to provide a unique look at not just the immediate effects an assault has on a survivor but also the ripple effects it has on their loved ones.You can view a video version of this episode here: https://youtu.be/KTJKg64RbgYPlease make sure to preorder Ryan Conner's new memoir, "12 Guys Walk Into A Kitchen."
