Welcome to Paw'd Defiance, where we don't lecture but we do educate. This podcast comes to you from the University of Washington Tacoma. Our show is about more than campus. During each episode we'll highlight a different person, program, area of research or educational topic that is relevant not only to the university but also to the Greater Tacoma community and beyond.

We're devoting the next few episodes to 2020. This has been a challenging year and we wanted to spend some time thinking about what we experienced during the past 12 months.

Leon recounts with blunt honesty her struggle with anxiety and depression. She also discusses her experience as a
