From Trauma to Triumph: Overcoming Abuse and Addiction

<p>Tarsha Jones is a proud Gomeroi woman who only learned of her Aboriginal heritage when she was a teenager. She opens up to Patty Kikos about how family violence impacted her life when her brother was hit by a drunk driver that caused him to have frontal lobe damage, and was ultimately drug addicted for 25 years. When Tarsha left her emotionally abusive husband who was an alcoholic, she never expected that her life would turn upside down. But that it would then become the right way up after she completed a TAFE course, changed careers, and after much deep listening and unexpected soul searching fro both her and her husband, found their way back to each other - in a much healthier way. </p>

Desistence: How It's Transforming Attitudes Towards Family Violence

<p>The fabulous Dr Hayley Boxall shines a light on family and partner violence by teaching us about &quot;desistance&quot;, and practical ways that we can encourage people to stop choosing to use violence. In this refreshingly down to earth interview with Patty Kikos, Hayley talks about the importance of &#39;respect&#39; for different cultures, valid reasons people choose to remain in relationships, how violence is not limited to lower socio economic environments and why pressuring someone to &#39;just leave&#39;, won&#39;t necessarily solve their problems. </p>
