Update: 2025-11-10
Description
The old narratives about abuse don’t always fit what we see today.
This week, I’m joined by Kristen Searcy, whose revolutionary Model of Abuse challenges everything we think we know about violence and control. We’re talking about how real change begins when we focus on consistent behaviors, not clinical labels.
