Beverly is a big proponent of bringing awareness to domestic abuse and is even putting on an awareness program this month. Beverly talks about the benefits of hiring a coach to help you prior to the divorce, during, and after to come from an empowering position. Tune in today to hear her red flags and learn how a coach can help you through this difficult time.
In this episode:
[2:08] Beverly shares her authentic story.
[7:50] What are some of the signs that a person is being abused?
[10:36] What are the components of financial abuse?
[17:33] When should someone contact Beverly for divorce coaching?
[19:40] Beverly discusses her awareness program.
[22:40] Beverly shares a piece of advice about empowerment.
Key Takeaways:
One form of abuse that is often overlooked is financial abuse. It’s so easy for a spouse to take over all finances, have everything in their name, and control all money, however this can be a form of abuse. This can start simply by only one spouse's name on a credit card or on the house, and it can drag further into a spouse not having any rights to the family money.
Hiring a divorce coach can be a great way to get a plan together before the divorce is even on the table.
Abuse is usually about power and control. The person doing the abusive behavior will do whatever it takes to prove their control. While it can start out small and unnoticeable, the longer in the relationship, they often desire more control.
If you see something, say something. Oftentimes, abuse is condoned with silence. The more we speak out about abuse, the more awareness one has around abusive behaviors, and the more likely that someone will ask for help and that those behaviors will not be tolerated.
Quotes:
“Abuse is really about power and control. It's not necessarily about the money, it's not necessarily about sex. It's about power and control in any of the forms.” - Beverly Price
“Don’t condone domestic violence by your silence. Let's combat it with awareness. Let's shift from condoning to condemning.” - Beverly Price
