Can your sense of security be restored after witnessing a threat firsthand? Join us as we reflect on our holiday season spent amongst family and our three golden retrievers, all while navigating the alarming incidents of domestic violence and terrorist attacks that have shaken our nation. As a former police officer, I recount a personal story of stepping in during a dire domestic violence situation, underscoring the need for proactive advocacy. We also touch on a frustrating encounter with Xfinity over a promotional offer, revealing the challenges faced by those with unique needs, such as being an amputee, in a world that often lacks understanding.
Our holiday season wouldn't be complete without some customer service chaos. From a FedEx delivery debacle to a puzzling interaction with Xfinity, we recount our challenges in dealing with customer service representatives who fail to accommodate specific needs. Despite the setbacks, we find humor and determination in these experiences, advocating against discriminatory practices and pushing for better accommodations for those facing disabilities. My husband adds his comic touch and admiration for my independence, emphasizing the importance of self-advocacy and resilience in overcoming life's obstacles.
Are video games really a gateway to violence, or are we overreacting to their impact? We explore this controversial topic, comparing classic games to modern, graphic content and questioning the societal shifts they've inspired. Our conversation extends to societal censorship, examining the logic behind banning classic Christmas songs while allowing more contentious modern music. Wrapping up, we share insights from my memoir "Who Kicked First," an empowering journey through trauma and survival. With unwavering support from my husband, we invite you to explore these narratives and find strength in standing up for others within our community.
