This episode is not an easy one — but it’s necessary and needs a trigger warning.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and this conversation hits deeply personal territory. In this solo episode, I open the month by naming what so many of us have silently carried — the truth about intimate partner violence, the staggering statistics behind it, and the stories that refuse to stay hidden any longer.

You’ll hear me speak not just as a coach and advocate, but as a survivor, a mother, and a woman who has decided that silence is no longer protection — it’s participation.

What’s Inside This Episode

The real numbers behind domestic and intimate partner violence — and why they demand a systemic, not individual, solution.

How violence and abuse ripple across generations, workplaces, and communities.

The unspoken question we must stop asking (“Why didn’t she leave?”) — and the one we must start asking instead (“What can I do to help?”).

My personal story — raw, unfiltered, and shared for the first time.

An invitation to join a revolution of awareness, empathy, and action.

This month, Girls Who Recover is dedicating every episode to raising awareness, sharing survivor stories, and highlighting the organizations and women leading change — beginning with Safe Harbor of Eastern Kentucky.

If you’re asking, “What can I do?” It's this: Donate directly to Safe Harbor HERE to support women and families heal and rebuild their lives after abuse and violence. Whatever the gift, big or small, will help provide safety, shelter, and hope for survivors and their children.

And if you’ve experienced intimate partner violence and are ready to tell your story, I want to hear from you.

Your truth could set another woman free.
