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!

episode 23: Surviving Betrayal & Domestic Violence: Sha Sparks' Journey to Fearless Living
My brave friend Sha Sparks joins me to share her unsettling yet empowering journey of surviving over a decade of domestic violence. Sha's story is marked by manipulation, deceit, and a shocking revelation of her partner's double life. She opens up about the fear and trepidation of navigating the volcanic temperament of an abusive partner; a misstep could turn into a trigger, escalating verbal blows into physical violence.
Sha's path to healing became her journey to empowerment. Her decisive moments of clarity led her to confront her fear, end the relationship, and seek help. We explore the generational impact of toxic manipulation and how Sha broke the cycle, setting boundaries and reclaiming her life.
Sha Sparks is the CEO of Sparks of Fire International, a Certified Fearless Living Coach, and a Fearless communicator. She is an author, speaker, and host of The Power of Investing in People podcast.
