The SHE Word - A Life After Domestic Violence
Domestic Violence affects one in three women in their life time. Let that sink in for a moment, one in three women will experience physical, emotional, mental, financial or sexual abuse from an intimate partner, a parent, a sibling or someone else within the home. But, there is life after DV as Pearl Vella-Harber so publicly demonstrated; there can be courage and closure after abuse.
The SHE Word dives into this topic for a third time as Trudy sits down with Pearl Vella Haber, Nancy Abela and Elaine Compagno to take a look at various stages of surviving and overcoming DV, from the acknowledgement of violence and calling it out for what it is, to planning an exit. From sitting with grief and anger, to building a new and complete life.
Pearl shares the impact of her own experiences of manipulation, isolation, name calling and threats that shaped her childhood and early adult life; the turning point that helped her build her life again, as well as the breaking point that lead to her taking a stand and facing her perpetrators.
Trauma therapist Nancy Abela not only shares her own personal story but the journey that lead her to become and Trauma Therapist, specialising in Narcissistic abuse and how she helps other women as they navigate the after effects of DV and the therapeutic process the will guide them to a full and free life.
Elaine is back on her second appearance talking about DV, the sometimes unexpected fall out of recovery, and to offer personal account as well as practical advice.
This show is so much more than a podcast, this episode is a source of powerful encouragement and inspiration for ALL women. Watch and be seen, be empowered, and be educated.
