You don't have to be abused. And if we can't live at peace with someone because they're the ones that's abusing us, then that's when we pull the law into it.
Picture this: two women, once trapped in the horrifying grip of intimate partner violence, now standing strong as advocates. In this episode of 'AbbaDaddy House Girls Speak Out', hosts Annette Smith and Myrna Thatcher sit down with these brave survivors to unpack the chilling realities of abuse and offer concrete steps to break free.
One guest recalls the moment her spouse shoved a shotgun to her throat, while the other recounts years of torment that made her believe she deserved the suffering. Both women escaped their abusers and now fight for others still caught in the cycle. This episode tackles tough questions: Is name-calling abuse? How do you recognize the signs? What's a safety plan, and how can you create one?
You'll also learn about protection orders, legal steps, and how to talk to your children about staying safe. Annette and Myrna don't just share stories; they provide a lifeline for anyone feeling trapped and hopeless. If you or someone you know is in an abusive relationship, this episode is a must-listen. It's not just about hearing stories—it's about finding hope and taking action.
