Karen Ballinger talks to SCN member Natalie Weinstein about her involvement with Truth Be Told, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing positive tools for personal and spiritual growth for incarcerated women.This Truth Be Told and Story Circle Network partnership is a powerful example of how telling our personal histories can help us understand our choices and heal our lives. We hear about what drew Natalie to match her Story Circle skills with another outreach organization and listen to a few stories penned by these amazing women.
