In this powerful episode, Leah and Sam dive into a tough but necessary conversation: Can someone truly be a good father if they were abusive to their partner? Spoiler alert—we don’t think so. We’re breaking down the harmful myth that someone can be a bad spouse but still a great parent, especially when it comes to emotional, verbal, or physical abuse. You’ll hear how abuse impacts children even when it’s not directed at them, why co-parenting with an abuser is anything but “neutral,” and how moms can protect their kids without the guilt. If you’ve ever been made to feel dramatic, bitter, or crazy for standing your ground—you’re not alone. Tune in for real talk, validation, and a whole lot of truth.
