<p><b>The Post-Separation Abuse Podcast</b></p><p><b>Hosted by Danielle Black</b></p><p><br></p><p>A no-fluff, evidence-based podcast for parents navigating <b>post-separation abuse, family violence, coercive control, and high-conflict separation and divorce -</b> with a relentless focus on <b>protecting children</b> in a system that too often fails them.</p><p><br></p><p>Hosted by Danielle Black, Australia’s leading specialist in <b>child-focused post-separation parenting</b>, this podcast is not about "amicable co-parenting at all costs", outdated ideologies, or adult notions of fairness. It is about understanding how abuse frequently continues <b>through parenting arrangements</b> after separation - and what genuinely child-centred decision-making looks like when risk, fear, or power imbalance is present.</p><p><br></p><p>Each episode challenges the myths that place children in harm’s way, including Australia’s dangerous obsession with <b>50/50 shared care</b>, the misapplication of "friendly parent" ideals, and the expectation that protective parents should endlessly compromise to keep the peace.</p><p><br></p><p>Drawing on developmental science, research-based evidence, trauma-informed practice, and lived experience, Danielle breaks down:</p><ul><li>How post-separation abuse actually operates</li><li>Why many standard parenting frameworks fail children in high-conflict cases</li><li>What evidence-based, defensible, <b>child-focused parenting</b> really requires</li><li>How to move from confusion and self-doubt to clarity and confidence</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This podcast is for parents who are done minimising risk, done being gaslit by systems and professionals, and done prioritising adult comfort over children’s safety and development.</p><p>Expect direct language, research-backed insight, practical guidance and a few cuss words here and there - not platitudes, false balance, or pressure to accept arrangements that don’t sit right - because <b>children’s wellbeing matters more than adult fairness. Always.</b></p><p><br></p><p>To go deeper, explore <a href="https://www.danielleblackcoaching.com.au/the-post-separation-parenting-blueprint-1"><b>The Post-Separation Parenting Blueprint™</b></a>, Danielle’s flagship program supporting parents to make informed, protective decisions after separation.</p><p><br></p><p>Learn more at <a href="http://danielleblackcoaching.com.au/"><b>danielleblackcoaching.com.au</b></a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Keywords: post-separation abuse, family violence, coercive control, high-conflict parenting, separation, divorce, family court, Australian family law.</p>
