I turned around to see a masked man pointing a gun at me. It was just the beginning of a series of events, including robbery and abduction, which changed my life forever. I Need Blue, hosted by Jen Lee, is a podcast series featuring lived-experiences from survivors of life events. I NEED BLUE creates space for survivors of trauma to feel they BELONG, are LOVED, UNDERSTOOD and EMPOWERED! I called 9-1-1 and they provided me with life-saving directions to help my customer who was having a medical emergency. Law enforcement rescued us and caught the robber. Our first-responders face unique traumas every day. I NEED BLUE provides space for them too!

This book recalls four personal experiences of suspense, suspicion, and survival that ultimately lead to Jen’s life purpose of helping other survivors.
The first story shares her long-distance relationship with a man who poisoned her self-worth and created self-doubt on every level. As if that weren’t enough, her boyfriend of three-years was harboring a secret. How she finally ended this relationship will shock you.
Six years later, she heard the words “give me all your money!” When she turned around, she couldn't believe what happened next!
Ten years later, she met a creepy guy at a work conference who forced his way into her personal space.
The final story is different. It’s heart-touching and impactful, inspiring you with the lessons she learned about intentions, faith, and fear that will reinforce your purpose on this Earth.
Throughout all the suspense and triumph over fear, you’ll find words of support and pages of resources, helping you to know that you are never alone.
