Have you ever noticed the shadows that gender stereotypes cast on our society, shaping the framework of domestic violence? In an episode that unveils the grim ties between these harmful norms and abuse within the home, we welcome Gladys Emmanuel, an astute Lawyer and Gender Equality Advocate. Together, we dissect the complexities of Gender-Based Violence, giving voice to victims/survivors and challenging the patriarchal bedrock that sustains this cycle of power and control. 

Our heartfelt discussion culminates in a spotlight on the critical role of family and community support systems, which can serve as lifelines for victims/survivors attempting to break free from abusive relationships. This episode isn't just a dialogue—it's a pledge for change, a testament to our resolve to stand against the violence that stems from deep-rooted stereotypes.
