033: Surviving the Unthinkable: Tina Talbot’s Story | Part 1

In this two part series, Hope sits down with survivor Tina Talbot, whose years of unimaginable abuse ultimately ended when she took the life of her abuser in an act of self-defense. Tina served time in prison and is now moving forward, healing, advocating, and living her life the best she can.

In Part One, Tina takes us back to the beginning—sharing the early warning signs, love bombing, coercive control, isolation, financial abuse, and escalating violence that shaped years of her life.

Trigger Warning: This episode contains detailed discussions of domestic violence, physical and sexual abuse, coercive control, trauma, suicidal thoughts, and threats of violence. Please listen with care.

Part two of Tina Talbot's episode will be released October 14th.
