Command Performances with Cheryl Knowlton

Are you tired of feeling trapped in a cycle of ineffective advice? Have you been told to just "try harder" when dealing with the pain of domestic violence, only to find yourself still struggling to see a way out? If this sounds all too familiar, it's time to break free from the ineffective patterns and find empowerment. It's time to discover the real support and awareness you deserve. Let's journey together towards increased empowerment and awareness.

In this episode, Cheryl Knowlton and Jen Mascaro discuss how to:

• Discover practical ways to increase awareness and support for domestic violence.

• Learn effective strategies for overcoming trauma and recovering from abuse.

• Understand the importance of seeking help early in situations of domestic violence.

• Explore ways to build resilience in abusive relationships.

• Gain insight into mediation for conflict resolution, leading to empowerment.

Key Takeaways:

• Recognizing and Addressing Domestic Violence

Domestic abuse comes in many forms; physical, emotional, and psychological. Understanding the early warning signs, such as manipulative control tactics, constant criticism, or threats, can empower individuals to recognize an abusive situation.

• Strategies for Overcoming Trauma

Trauma often leaves victims feeling broken and alone, hindering their healing process. Developing resilience, practicing self-love, and sharing personal experiences can be impactful steps towards overcoming trauma.

• Importance of Seeking Help Early

In situations of domestic violence, seeking help early is crucial for personal safety. Reach out to supportive individuals or resources like domestic violence shelters, family members, and friends. Act without waiting for the 'right' time or financial stability as enduring abuse can risk psychological, emotional, and physical health.

“Don't wait. You're never going to have enough money to get out. It's never going to be. The right time is usually when something tragic has happened. Don't let that tragedy happen to you or your kids.” -Jen Mascaro
