    Magic Hour - Left, Write, Hook with Dr Donna Lyon and Dr. Shannon Owen

    WARNING: THIS EPISODE CONTAINS REFERENCES TO SEXUAL ABUSE Director Shannon Owen and Producer Dr. Donna Lyon talk about the trials and tribulations of "Left, Write, Hook" a feature-length documentary about seven women who responded to a call-out to participate in an 8-week experimental recovery program. The program supports survivors of childhood sexual assault by addressing both the physical and emotional impacts of trauma through a unique combination of boxing and creative writing. What begins as an 8-week program soon becomes much more as these survivors build bonds with one another and with their coach that lead to transformations they could only have dreamed of.
