181: [WCN Presents] Episode 1 - 30 Survivor Updates

Welcome to a special update episode of What Came Next. Since the launch of What Came Next over three years ago, we have had the honor of hosting conversations with nearly 200 incredible survivors and co-victims. Each guest we’ve hosted has brought powerful insight and incredible advocacy to the survivor community, and their work often extends far beyond the scope of their episode or episodes. In an effort to highlight our incredible past guests’ continued advocacy, we’re bringing you news and updates about their journeys. Today we’re highlighting some of the guests from Episodes 1 through 30, which originally aired from March 3rd, 2023 to August 18th, 2023. A lot can happen in three years, as you’ll hear in their updates. Please note, some of the survivors were able to send their updates in their own voice, and others sent updates in the form of narration. The Broken Cycle Media team is deeply appreciative of all of the past guests who provided updates, as well as the ones who were unable to do so this time around.Sources: NBCUniversal News Group.
