Escaping Intimate Partner Abuse: Tia Levings' Journey To Liberation

Once you're in it, how can you escape intimate partner abuse? In part two of our conversation with Tia Levings, we discuss her journey of liberation and recovery from a system of high-control Christian patriarchy.
Tia Levings joins hosts Amber and PJ as they delve deeper into her harrowing escape from an abusive, high-control religious environment. Drawing from her experiences which have now been documented in her book, Tia discusses the challenging journey of healing and recovery. From awakening to harsh realities, naming the trauma she suffered, adjusting to newfound safety, reconnecting with her true self, and finding a genuine voice, Tia walks us through her transformation into an activist and a powerful advocate for victims of fundamentalist abuse.
