About this episode
Healthy relationships after family violence, and in the midst of post-separation abuse, are possible - but they are rarely talked about honestly in survivor spaces.In this special anniversary episode, Danielle Black is joined by her husband Drew for a candid conversation about what it actually looks like to build a safe, equal partnership after coercive control, trauma, and years of family court proceedings.This episode does not offer a fairy tale. It offers something more useful: evidence.Danielle and Drew explore:What it was like for a partner to step into a post-separation abuse situation they didn't fully understandThe reality of loving someone with C-PTSD and ongoing coercive controlWhat helplessness feels like for the supporting partner - and what actually helpedWhy healthy relationships after abuse require both people to do their own workWhat equal, non-performative partnership looks like in daily family lifeRaising sons and daughters while actively dismantling gender stereotypes at homeWhy "not all me" can be said from a place of hope rather than minimisationThis episode also marks the debut of Calm is Credible - the first brand anthem created for the Post-Separation Abuse Podcast and Danielle Black Coaching - releasing today for the first time.If you have wondered whether safety and love are still possible after surviving family violence, coercive control, or post-separation abuse, this episode is for you.If you are the partner of a survivor who doesn't know how to help, this episode is also for you.As always, this episode is not legal advice and not therapy.Explore the supports offered by Danielle Black CoachingThe Post-Separation Parenting Blueprint™👉 https://www.danielleblackcoaching.com.au/the-post-separation-parenting-blueprint-1AI Danielle - Your 24/7 Digital Coach👉 https://www.danielleblackcoaching.com.au/meet-ai-danielle1:1 Coaching 👉 https://www.danielleblackcoaching.com.au/1-1-coachingThe music you hear in this outro is 'Calm is Credible' - an original track created exclusively for the Post-Separation Abuse Podcast and Danielle Black Coaching. You can listen and download this track via the Danielle Black Coaching website, in our 'free resources' area.About Danielle Black Coaching:Danielle Black is a respected authority in child-focused post-separation parenting in Australia.
