Lift the Silence - A Whistleblower's Journey

Listen in to the compelling stories of my courageous guests whose traumatic stories will make you question what it is that makes us speak-up and what makes us stay silent. My guests have put their careers on the line to ensure justice prevails. This episode we hear from Steve Denis, an aid-worker, now trauma recovery coach, whose was kidnapped, shot and rescued in Dadaab refugee camp in Kenya in 2012. In his pursuit for accountability and closure, which led to a precedent setting lawsuit, you will notice throughout his story, how before, and after this life-changing incident, on how many occasions he, and others, are silenced. This never ends well...
