Breaking the Silence: Tackling Domestic Abuse with Kate Beesley

Episode Overview

  • Recognise the early signs of coercive control.
  • Educate young people about dominance-based masculinity.
  • Set boundaries around technology use.
  • Discuss consent in various contexts, not just sexual.
  • Understand the role of education in preventing violence.
Coercive control and domestic abuse don't start with a punch in the face. They start with tiny demands that you have to meet.
The Domestic Abuse Breakthrough Show, hosted by Kate Beesley, dives deep into the serious issue of violence against women and girls. Kate, a survivor herself and a trauma specialist, brings her unique perspective to the table, making the show both personal and educational. In this episode, Kate is joined by Andrew Bernard, also known as Bernie, who shares his journey from working in business to becoming an advocate against male violence.
He speaks passionately about his sister Sarah's tragic death due to domestic abuse and how it propelled him to educate young people about coercive control and toxic masculinity. Bernie’s candid conversation with Kate sheds light on the importance of recognising the signs of abuse and the role of education in preventing violence. They discuss the concept of dominance-based masculinity and how it perpetuates harmful behaviours.
The episode is filled with practical advice for parents and educators on setting boundaries and talking to young people about consent and respect. With heartfelt stories and actionable insights, this episode is a must-listen for anyone wanting to understand more about domestic abuse and how to combat it.
