October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, a critical time to elevate a topic that is known as a “silent problem.” 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will experience some form of domestic abuse in their lifetime. Veteran journalist, nationally syndicated talk show host and pet lover Tamron Hall shines a light on Domestic Violence and Pets and what is being done to keep pets and people together. It’s a topic that is near and dear to her heart having lost her beloved sister, Renate, to domestic abuse more than a decade ago.

During our talk, Tamron discusses The Purple Leash Project. Founded by Purina and RedRover, the Purple Leash Project provides resources to make domestic violence shelters pet-friendly, allowing pets and people to escape abuse and heal together. Domestic Violence Awareness Month – As October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, it’s a time to elevate these issues, raise awareness and support survivors. Plus we learn about Tamron’s connection to this cause, passion for pets, her new book release and what else she is up to in the Fall/Winter season.
