(Ep14) Lisa Saruga, a freshman in college at the time, awoke to find a man wearing a face mask crouched beside her bed. He brutally assaulted her, nearly causing her death, and forever changing her life.

Lisa shares her journey of healing after surviving this assault during her college years. The story takes an unexpected turn decades later when the cold case is reopened, bringing Lisa’s past back to the forefront.

She’s here to tell trauma survivors that it’s possible to grow through trauma...and it’s never too late!

Lisa Saruga is an award-winning author of her book titled “The Trauma Tree.” She is also a licensed professional counselor and an EMDR trauma therapist. Now, she dedicates her life to writing, speaking, and advocating for victims’ rights, making these her full-time pursuits.
