About this listen
In this inaugural episode of Courageous Conversations with PADV, we begin by addressing one of the most common misconceptions about domestic violence: the belief that leaving an abusive relationship is a single decision.
The reality is far more complex.
Leaving is a process shaped by safety planning, emotional readiness, children, finances, housing, healing, and fear. In this episode, we explore why survivors leave when they do, what they are weighing along the way, and how compassion, patience, and support play a critical role in long term safety and stability.
This conversation is for survivors, advocates, supporters, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of what it truly takes to rebuild after abuse.
