When home isn't your safe place - "I'm grateful for the memory loss"

Did you grow up feeling safe in your family home? Have you ever had to make yourself small to feel safe? Kari describes how as a young child she learnt that "if I'm not seen and I'm not heard, no harm can come to me". Hear Kari bravely share her story of childhood abuse, and how she has triumphed over her past to be able to live a meaningful life today.
