WHEN DATING HURTS

215. Mindy - Successful Survivor Giving Her Third Progress Report


Listen Later

This will be our third interview with Mindy. She is a survivor who first appeared in the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast 18 months ago.


During our first interview together, Mindy used a created name (Becca). Back then, she had very recently broken away from her abuser of eight years. Mindy was determined to stay away from him, and a year and a half later, she is successful.


Six months after our first interview, Mindy gave us her "progress report". She remained zero tolerance against any communications with this toxic man: a predator who had emotionally and violently abused her.


Today, a year after her first progress report, Mindy is back with with us for another report.


She is a happy person. She managed to see the importance of putting more emphasis on getting her personal life together. She doesn't feel she needs a partner to complete her life.


Mindy represents a model case for moving on and doing her best to never look back. Her future is getting the attention now.


Mindy has a new boyfriend today. It's still early, at the three months mark, but there are signs this new boyfriend, "Dustin", understands the importance of fairness in a relationship, and the need to be honest at all times.


Be sure to share Mindy's interview with someone you feel needs to see what it's like to have your freedom back–on your own terms.
