We are back with a new season and kicking off with a powerful discussion of "Why They Stay: The Legal and Emotional Toll of Leaving Power & Abuse." Why do survivors of abuse stay—especially when their abuser is powerful, wealthy, and adored by the public?

In this gripping episode, Demetria Graves, Esq. examines the high-profile case of Sean “Diddy” Combs and Cassie Ventura, unraveling the emotional, psychological, and legal complexities behind why leaving abuse isn’t always simple—or safe. From allegations of sex trafficking and emotional manipulation to civil lawsuits and industry silence, we explore the deeper forces at play.

Joining Demetria is certified life and relationship coach LeAnn Lazar, who shares insight on trauma bonding, control, and the process of reclaiming personal power after abuse.

If you’ve ever asked, “Why didn’t they just leave?”—this episode is for you.

**TRIGGER WARNING:** This episode contains discussions of abuse, sexual violence, and trauma
