From the Author: Are you tired of hearing about sexual assault and abuse in the news on a daily basis? I know I am. We have all heard the buzz of #MeToo, #TimesUp, and the current Women's Movement but what specific skills have you learned to help keep you safe? As a professional self-defense expert, I have studied rape prevention programs and advanced assault techniques for many years and can tell you predators are more likely to be people you know- yet most can be prevented. Someone You Know, uses personal stories to help readers easily understand expert advice to prevent abusers from selecting you. I lay out useful safety tools that I have learned from my fifteen-plus years leading workshops for girls and women with my award-winning empowerment organization. This book is for anyone who enjoys a light, easy, educational read to end sexual assault and abuse in the world- and it may even save your life! From Readers: "I wish someone had given me this book when I was growing up. I too swam in the culture of victim blaming, shaming women and patriarchy that Dara Connolly so clearly illustrates. We won't move the needle on sexual assault and violence against women until we look critically at the false myths that society uses to keep the cycle going. This book does just that. The author does not mince words; sharing stories and anecdotes that help the reader see the problem clearly. More importantly, this book is full of wisdom and practical advice that can be implemented immediately. This book is an honest and frank discussion of the reality of sexual assault in our society and what to do about it. It should be required reading for all families." Yvette Givvin Mother, Speaker, Story-Teller, Life Coach "As a psychotherapist for 40 years, I have treated many adult and child victims of abuse. This book provides a significant contribution to informing people of the coping skills and warning signs regarding abuse. The author's emphasis on positive self-esteem, deserving healthy relationships, and boundaries to mistreatment is of great value. Parents sharing the ideas in this book to their children would be highly beneficial." Jan Dombrower MS, MFT "Someone You Know by Dara Connolly is a moving, informative, and deeply important book that demystifies our biases and myths about sexual assault and abusive relationships. I love her immediately applicable tips and real stories. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to empower themselves and all the women and girls they care about. Keep this book handy and refer to it often until the tips and tools Connolly shares become second nature. It's our turn -- we can change our world for the better!" Beth Barany Award-winning Author, Creativity Coach, Teacher, Speaker "Someone You Know evokes profound insight, strong instincts, and deep awareness of relationships. Moreover, Dara Connolly empowers self-defense through mindful applications of intuition and emotional intelligence." Shashi Khosla DDS, Life-Coach, Certified Yoga and Meditation "This book provides valuable insight to women (and men) on sexual assault prevention and escaping dangerous relationships." Christine Dillman Director Sexual Assault, Tri-Valley Haven
