<p>I left the abusive relationship so life should just be easy. There shouldn't be so much pain and struggle. But that is not how things work when you have created children with someone as dangerous as my abuser. They don't just let go. They don't make things easy.

Episode 12 - This Shouldn't Be This Hard

I am a survivor of domestic violence. I got out believing that I was now free. What I didn't realize was that because I had procreated with my abuser my life was still under his control. This is my story of the abuse I survived, the abuse that continued after I left, how broken our judicial and family court system is, and how all of it has led me to decisions I never thought I would have to make. This story is for people that have lived or are currently living the same nightmare and for those that don't fully understand the impacts domestic violence has on those that experience it.
