She shows how she was determined not to be a victim anymore but a survivor and how despite having all these bad experiences and also having dyslexia she become a NLP Practitioner to try and help others who are in the position she was in.  Shana talks about the different types of domestic abuse and how we as a society can help look out for others. Her final words at the end of the show  " Be the hero you never had" were powerful.
