Behind Closed Doors: The Pattern, the Prison, and the Power to Leave
Chats from the Blog Cabin: Domestic Violence
On this episode of Chats from the Blog Cabin podcast with Melissa Vera, Joy and Laura discuss why domestic violence doesn’t start with a punch—it starts with a pattern. In this candid interview, we rip the lid off the myths and manipulations that trap women in abusive relationships. From love bombing and financial control to trauma-bonded turtlenecks and the psychological prisons victims live in, we expose how violence hides in plain sight—and why it’s so often misunderstood.
