Would you know where to look for support and information around Domestic Abuse?
For anyone who has experienced domestic abuse they will tell you that one of the most difficult things to do when trying to move forward in their lives, is gaining a sense of focus. Everything has become so blurred in their life, that it’s hard to see the wood for the trees.
You Don’t Own Me is here to tell you that it is possible to regain a sense of focus and live a life you deserve.
So if you or someone you know has experienced Domestic Abuse, finding the right support is invaluable.
My Blogs, Guest Blogs and Podcast will hopefully be additional support for many but you may want to check out some of the links below –
