Send us a text In this episode we will talk about how abusers keep control over us - even long after we are out of that situation it can still apply.

Send us a text In this episode we talk about how love is not enough. Though this episode is going to be a bit different again, because - for one - it is something that is so deeply painful and hard to accept - that it is very difficult to talk about it.
