Cait Alexander joins us to share her story of surviving an attempted murder on July 31, 2021. What started as a "Hallmark" relationship during the pandemic quickly turned into a fight for her life.

In this episode, Cait breaks down the specific patterns abusive partners follow, often called the "Dark Triad" of narcissism and psychopathy. She explains why victims often "freeze" instead of fight, and why leaving is statistically the most dangerous time in a relationship.

We also discuss the failure of the justice system. After nearly killing her, Cait’s abuser was released on just $500 bail. She shares how she is now suing the government to demand change.
