Why not change the meaning of that day and rename it, re-label it, re-associate it with something that you've created for yourself and stop dreading that day, dreading that time and kind of create something better.
Valentine's Day isn't always hearts and roses, especially for those who've faced abuse. In this heartfelt episode of 'The Trauma of Abuse', Hannah Barnard flips the script on this often challenging holiday. She acknowledges the pain and manipulation that abusers can bring to such occasions but offers a refreshing take on turning Valentine's Day into a celebration of self-love and care.

With practical tips on setting boundaries and standing up for oneself, this episode is a treasure trove of advice for anyone feeling overshadowed or dismissed. Hannah also sheds light on the urgent need for better support systems for abuse survivors, stressing the importance of providing solid evidence and information to tackle these issues effectively.
Whether you're looking to reclaim Valentine's Day or seeking strategies to thrive in hostile work settings, this episode is packed with insights and encouragement. Tune in for a compassionate and empowering conversation that could change how you see February 14th.
