Violence against women is a major public health problem and a violation of ones human rights. Most violence and abuse takes place in intimate relationships. Carolyn’s story is no different. She shares a very detailed account of manipulation, subtlety, and the rollercoaster of being in an intimate and abusive relationship. It is powerful, yet jaw dropping in parts and most importantly valuable to those who could be potentially involved in a similar sort of relationship. This episode is brought to you in conjunction with the Arts Council and Out Solutions CIC.

How things then changed following my first marriage and the pressures of a traditional cultural upbringing culminated in the events I want to talk about today. This is the story of how through hope and sadness, the butterfly of my life was born. This is the story of my life...

The ‘Story of My Life’ is a project funded and supported by the Arts Council. Our Solutions CIC are supporting 30 people to tell a story about their lived experience in 3 ways; a written book, a painting of the past, present and future and as an audio story. In this episode you hear the story Alexandra, a young retiree.... Having sold up a business my husband of over 23 years and I founded after uni. I’m a dual national, American/British, who lives mostly in the French Alps.

Nearly 6 years of retirement have afforded me the ability to welcome a huge personal transformational journey I never could’ve imagined. Throughout my life, there have always been so many things I didn’t understand—a lot to do with my family & personal relationships, and the coping mechanisms I developed growing up in a dysfunctional family weren’t always serving me well into adulthood. After my Mom’s death, I ended up having a “midlife crisis” at 42 which turned everything around! #stories #empowerment #arts #mentalhealth
