In this powerful episode, Rochelle sits down with Miranda a survivor of domestic violence whose life was upended by fear, control and manipulation. Amongst multiple attempts to escape, custody battles, and doing everything she could to protect her children, it was a simple It’s in the Bag donation that reminded her that she mattered. 


Miranda shares the subtle red flags she learned to dismiss, the generational patterns she fought to break, and the moment the tote bag filled with essentials helped her feel seen again. 
This is a story of resilience, community, and how small acts of generosity can have a big impact on someone's life.
