What happens when silence protects abusers more than it protects victims?

In this Special Edition of the Healing Through Love Podcast, advocate and recording artist Jo Cooper joins Sharlene Lynch to unpack one of the most urgent conversations of our time — the apathy and silence surrounding abuse, bullying, and domestic violence prevention.

Jo Cooper is not only a survivor; she’s a movement maker. Her landmark legal victory in Cooper v The Owners – Strata Plan No 58068 secured her place in one of the Top 10 Influential Court Cases of the 21st Century. Today, she’s leading a national campaign for Clare’s Law — legislation that empowers individuals to know if their partner has a history of violence.

In this transformative episode, Jo and Sharlene dive into how silence enables harm, why bystanders hold the key to prevention, and what every listener can do to change the culture around violence and accountability.

You’ll discover:

• The power of calling injustice out early before silence becomes complicity.
• The responsibility and influence of bystanders in breaking the cycle of abuse.
• Practical steps to shift the narrative, empower communities, and create environments where safety is everyone’s business.

This isn’t just an interview; it’s a wake-up call. Jo’s courage and clarity will leave you questioning your own role in moments that matter — and how you can help turn awareness into action.

Join us for this heartfelt and fearless conversation that reminds us all: real change begins when one voice refuses to stay quiet.

What does it really mean to speak up—when doing so could cost you everything?

In this raw and powerful episode of Healing Through Love, Rose Davidson sits down with Lina Nguyen, a lawyer, mediator, and survivor of workplace sexual violence, who shares what it truly means to speak the truth, reclaim your voice, and rebuild your life after unthinkable harm.

Lina’s story is not just about survival—it’s about transformation. After being raped by a police officer at a work function, she chose to speak out. What followed was a brutal legal process, professional backlash, and the loss of her job. But through it all, Lina discovered a deeper strength, a clearer purpose, and a new path to justice—one grounded not in revenge, but in self-respect and healing.

In this conversation, Lina unpacks:

💜 What it means to speak your truth when no one wants to hear it
💜 How to define justice for yourself when the system fails you
💜 What rebuilding looks like—from identity to purpose, and everything in between

She offers not just her story, but a roadmap for anyone who has ever been silenced, blamed, or forced to start over. With grace and honesty, Lina shows how the worst chapters of your life can become the foundation for something meaningful, purposeful, and powerful.

This episode is a beacon for survivors, advocates, and allies alike. It’s about the quiet courage to begin again—and the fierce love required to hold yourself through it.

Are you ready to reclaim your voice—and your future?
Listen now.
