In this episode of Another Bloody Podcast, Rochelle sits down with Gemma, a proud Aboriginal mum of three and survivor of years of domestic violence. After her tenth and final attempt to leave, Gemma arrived at a refuge and found an It’s in the Bag waiting on the bed, an act of kindness that gave her hope in her darkest moment. Gemma shares her story of fleeing danger, rebuilding her life from the ground up, studying social work, and now working for a community organisation built on the belief of mob working for mob. Today, she helps others find safety, dignity and belonging, and even gets to hand out It’s in the Bag donations to women walking the path she once did. This is a conversation about survival, healing, cultural strength, and how one bag can change a life (and a community).
