Welcome to Episode 136 of the Warrior Words podcast!

Last week would have been my 25th wedding anniversary.

Except, my marriage ended due to domestic violence.

In this last week of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, I take a look at some of the things that have occurred over the last 25 years.

I talk about the difficulty abused spouses have when they're not allowed to go no contact until their youngest turns 18. But I also talk about healing and forgiveness - the freedom of not allowing your abuser to live rent-free in your head.

Don't allow them to keep you a victim. That keeps the power on their side of the fence. Take your power back and become the victor!
