Linda led that course. In this conversation, the ladies reflect on that experience but more importantly, Linda shares information about self-defense techniques beyond the physical skills.

She also explains what happens to many of us who experience the freeze response and how we can work our way through it. This is definitely an episode you want to listen through to the end.
