Timothy Jones | There's Hope   On episode 1 of the MST Podcast, sponsored by the Veterans Breakfast Club, host Lauren DelRicci talks with navy veteran Timothy Jones about his MST experience being raped and suffering the fallout among his peers after reporting the crime.  Timothy shares his powerful story of survival from sinking to the depths of despair, rising with hopefulness, and realizing healthfulness within a community of supportive fellow veterans in Pittsburgh.     ABOUT THIS EPISODE Timothy Jones is a navy veteran and survivor of military sexual trauma.  While stationed in Japan, he was raped by a Marine.  Although Tim reported the crime, his peers hazed and harassed him to the point where he was removed from this duty station and eventually discharged from the navy.  His assailant was eventually convicted and sentenced to six months in the Brig. In this episode, Timothy shares a powerful story of survival.  From sinking to the depths of despair and then rising with hopefulness, he now realizes healthfulness within a community of supportive fellow veterans in Pittsburgh.  But every day is a struggle, he admits, but through it all there’s hope for a better day today than yesterday. This episode was recorded May 22, 2018 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  Host: Lauren DelRicci.  Guest: Timothy Jones.  Podcast Producer: Kevin Farkas.  Audiography: Kevin Farkas, Nick Grimes.  Music (available on SoundCloud.com): Panda Dog Music (“The Return of Bossa”), Zom V (“LuvStep 2011 Mini Mix”), 9 Smooth Vibe (“Soul Lounge Mix”).  Additional sound (available on Youtube):  Dept. of Defense (“Sexual Assault – Retaliation,” “Get Consent”).

All rights reserved.   ABOUT THE PODCAST Where our stories are told, others can unfold. The MST Podcast features hopeful conversations with survivors of military sexual trauma (MST).  Because there is a direct connection between storytelling, compassion, empathy, and healing, MST also stands for My Story Told.  Through stories we connect, we understand, and we heal.  Specifically, through stories of hope and possibility we can also inspire other veterans and trauma survivors to shift from surviving to thriving.  Our guests lead by example, they speak up about their trauma, and they reveal that what works in their lives just might work for others.  We think it’s our duty to listen and learn. Lauren DelRicci hosts the podcast.  She is a veteran of the US Navy and an MST survivor.         OTHER WAYS TO FIND THE PODCAST jQuery(document).ready(function() { jQuery('#slider_4651').owlCarousel({ responsive:{ 0:{ items:1 }, 480:{ items:1 }, 768:{ items:3 }, 980:{ items:4 }, 1200:{ items:4 }, 1500:{ items:4 } }, autoplay : true, autoplayTimeout : 5000, autoplayHoverPause : true, smartSpeed : 200, fluidSpeed : 200, autoplaySpeed : 200, navSpeed : 200, dotsSpeed : 200, loop : true, nav : true, navText : ['',''], dots : true, responsiveRefreshRate : 200, slideBy : 1, mergeFit : true, autoHeight : false, mouseDrag : true, touchDrag : true }); jQuery('#slider_4651').css('visibility', 'visible'); sa_resize_slider_4651(); window.addEventListener('resize', sa_resize_slider_4651); function sa_resize_slider_4651() { var min_height = '50'; var win_width = jQuery(window).width(); var slider_width = jQuery('#slider_4651').width(); if (win_width < 480) { var slide_width = slider_width / 1; } else if (win_width < 768) { var slide_width = slider_width / 1; } else if (win_width < 980) { var slide_width = slider_width / 3; } else if (win_width < 1200) { var slide_width = slider_width / 4; } else if (win_width < 1500) {

All rights reserved.         ABOUT THE PODCAST The Carnegie Free Library of Beaver Falls hosts the Uncomfortable Conversations Speaker Series.  The series is called uncomfortable conversations because these are not easy topics that have simple solutions.  The series creates forums to help initiate conversations about topics that can affect our children, our families, our friends, and our communities.  Each of the programs is designed to provide the opportunity to become aware of community issues, begin a discussion and sharing of information, and empower participants to take appropriate action. Host Jean Barsotti has been director of the Carnegie Free Library of Beaver Falls for more than seventeen years.  A native of Ellwood City, Pa, Jean holds BA and MSLS degrees from Clarion University of Pennsylvania.  Active with the American Library Association and Pennsylvania Library Association, Jean has also been leader within the Beaver County Library System.  Jean has been forward thinking about libraries' roles in hosting communities as a knowledge exchange centers and sites of social engagement.  Her Uncomfortable Conversations Speaker Series at the Beaver Falls library is evidence of her vision for how libraries should and can serve their communities in the 21st century.
