October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Statistics indicate that approximately 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will experience domestic violence in their lifetime. Every minute in the U.S., about 20 to 24 people are physically abused by an intimate partner, amounting to more than 12 million individuals each year. Domestic violence also impacts millions of children, and the economic toll is substantial, resulting in nearly 8 million lost workdays annually in the U.S.  Our guest today, June Sheehan Berlinger, RN, has authored a powerful account of her personal experience with domestic violence in her book, "Rising Above the Trauma of Abuse." June is a nationally recognized expert on this issue, and her dual perspective makes her book both deeply personal and practical. Given the prevalence of this social issue, along with the secrecy and stigma that often surround those affected, many victims suffer in silence. June urges us to speak out and take a stand against all forms of domestic violence. By doing so, you could help save a life.Special Guest: June Berlinger, Author and Domestic Abuse Advocate June Sheehan Berlinger, BSN, is a survivor, mother, nurse, writer, and public speaker. She dedicated her career to helping women. June served on Florida's Governor's Domestic and Sexual Violence Task Force from 1994–1997 and directed The Women's Center at Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare for 14 years. Her pioneering work includes developing Florida's first hospital protocol for domestic violence and FIRST STEP, a victim handbook that was distributed statewide. A four-time published author, June has trained health and mental healthcare professionals, law enforcement, and legal teams across the U.S. She lives with her husband, Tom in Denver, CO.

Dagney—survivor, author, and subconscious reprogramming expert—shines a light on the long-term impacts of abuse that often go unnoticed.You'll learn:How isolation keeps survivors trapped and silentWhy the silent treatment and stonewalling leave lasting emotional woundsHow projection and blame-shifting destroy self-trustThe toll abuse takes on your mental health and nervous systemSteps to begin reclaiming your sense of self and reconnecting with your worthThis conversation will help you understand the invisible aftermath of emotional abuse, validate what you've been through, and remind you: you are not broken—you were abused.

Kick the day off with real talk: from an icon’s private battle to a viral fashion rumor, from youth intimacy in crisis to a pulpit meltdown — welcome to the full-spectrum rundown. In a brutally honest sit-down, Gucci Mane and his wife Keyshia Ka’oir opened up about his diagnosis of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, revealing how she monitors his phone and behavior to intervene when episodes of psychosis strike. Meanwhile, a claim that Cardi B had struck a $55 million deal to become a brand ambassador for Louis Vuitton was quickly shot down by the brand, underscoring how celebrity-rumor culture and luxury marketing collide online. During Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the crew took on how teenage dating abuse looks in the digital age, noting that about 1 in 12 high-school students report physical violence from a partner and nearly 1 in 10 report sexual violence. Each story connects in its own way to power, expectation, and the impact of private actions made public.

In this mini-episode, released in recognition of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Sheyahshe revisits the story of Ashlea Aldrich, a 29-year-old Indigenous mother from the Omaha Reservation whose death remains unsolved nearly five years later. On January 7th, 2020, Ashlea was found dead in a field near her home. Her family believes she was the victim of years of domestic violence and that their repeated pleas for help were ignored by the very systems meant to protect her.Ashlea's story is not an isolated tragedy. It's a reflection of a crisis, one where violence against Indigenous women is too often dismissed, and justice comes too late, if at all.Sources:https://siouxcityjournal.com/news/local/a-special-journal-report-family-still-seeking-justice-one-year-after-macy-womans-death/article_3041fa75-7249-5978-8697-2778757f78dc.htmlhttps://www.3newsnow.com/news/national/two-americas/two-americas-murdered-missing-indigenous-women-why-no-one-seems-to-carehttps://www.indianz.com/News/2020/01/10/this-is-one-of-the-most-heartbreaking-is.asphttps://www.investigationdiscovery.com/crimefeed/murder/family-claims-fbi-botched-investigation-of-indigenous-womanSupport the show

Send us a text“Why didn't you just leave?” It's the question survivors of abuse hear the most—and the one that causes the deepest shame. The truth is, leaving an abusive relationship isn't simple. The reason is something called the cycle of abuse and trauma bonding.In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Allison K. Dagney—survivor, author, and subconscious reprogramming expert—explains why survivors feel trapped even when they want to escape.In this episode, you'll learn:The four stages of the cycle of abuse: love bombing, devaluation, discard, and hooveringHow trauma bonds form through intermittent reinforcement and brain chemistryWhy the bond feels like love but is actually survivalFirst steps you can take to recognize the pattern in your own lifeThis conversation is for anyone who has ever asked themselves, “Why didn't I leave?” or struggled to understand why someone else stayed. You'll walk away with clarity, validation, and a new perspective that removes the shame and puts the responsibility where it belongs—on the abuser.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITHeadlines can be loud and hollow, but the stakes underneath them are real. We start with a celebrity anniversary post that tried to be edgy and landed squarely in the wrong month, raising hard questions about timing, tone, and how public figures wield influence during Domestic Violence Awareness Month. The photo looks staged, the caption tries to shock, and the audience reaction reminds us that jokes about harm don't exist in a vacuum—especially when thousands of real stories sit behind the statistic.From there, we step into a Houston tragedy involving a Porsche 911, a 0.301 BAC, cocaine, and a legal defense pointing to designer heels. The facts feel blunt, the excuses feel thin, and the outcome is irreversible. We unpack accountability and why narratives that blur responsibility only deepen public cynicism. When lifestyle and luxury collide with impaired driving and loss of life, the lesson is not about fashion—it's about choices that endanger others.We also come up for air with a look at The Diplomat: the performances, the politics, and yes, the hair that somehow became a character of its own. That detour opens a larger conversation about Hollywood's pressure to stay “ageless,” the surge in cosmetic procedures, and what it means to age on your own terms. We share a candid take on past Botox, the decision to stop, and how seeing unedited faces can reset our idea of normal. It's not about shaming any choice; it's about widening the lane for all of them.We wrap with a sweet, simple question for Halloween season—your go-to candy bar—because small joys are how we balance heavy news cycles. If you're into pop culture with substance, true accountability, and a little nostalgia, you'll feel right at home here. Listen, share with a friend who loves a good debate, and leave a review to tell us where you land on accountability, aging, and the best candy on the shelf.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Thanks for listening!

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and while we wish this wasn't something we needed to talk about, it's a heartbreaking reality—even among those who profess faith in Christ. In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Leslie speaks directly to women who are suffering in silence, helping them understand the truth about domestic abuse through a biblical lens. If you've ever been told to pray harder, submit more, or suffer silently for the sake of your marriage, this episode is a must-listen. With over 45 years of counseling experience, Leslie shares how abuse shows up in both obvious and subtle ways and offers practical, faith-based guidance for identifying abuse, responding wisely, and reclaiming your safety, dignity, and voice. Key Takeaways Domestic Abuse is Always Sin Domestic violence isn't just about physical harm—it's any pattern of dishonoring behavior, including emotional, verbal, spiritual, financial, and sexual abuse. Abuse is never justified, never excusable, and always sinful. God's Word calls us to honor one another as His image-bearers, and repeated harm without repentance is not just sinful—it's destructive. You Are Not to Blame Abuse is not a response to being provoked. Everyone gets frustrated, but each of us is responsible for our own actions and words. Ephesians reminds us: “In your anger, do not sin.” An abuser's choice to harm is not your fault. You are not to carry the blame for someone else's sin. Biblical Headship is Not About Control True biblical headship is never about domination or coercion. Biblical submission must be freely chosen—not forced. When power is used to silence, manipulate, or intimidate, it is no longer leadership; it is oppression. God's heart is always for the oppressed, not the oppressor. God Cares About Your Safety The Bible does not ask you to stay in harm's way. Proverbs 27:12 says, “The prudent see danger and take refuge.” God values your safety and sanity more than keeping up appearances. From Rahab to baby Jesus fleeing Herod, Scripture supports wise action to protect life and wellbeing. Speak the Truth and Allow Consequences Ephesians 5:11 tells us to expose the unfruitful deeds of darkness. Enabling sin through silence is not biblical. Loving your enemy doesn't mean tolerating abuse or reconciling without repentance. True change involves confession, visible repentance, and bearing the weight of consequences. Even David, though forgiven, faced the loss of his child as a result of sin. Healing Starts With Truth and Safety Are you feeling overwhelmed or unsure about what to do next? Start by taking one brave step toward truth and safety. Begin building a safety plan, speak up to someone you trust, and don't be afraid to set boundaries. Romans 12:21 reminds us, “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” You are not powerless. Choosing what is good might mean leaving, telling the truth, or finally saying "no more." If this episode spoke to your heart, and you realize you need help navigating a destructive marriage, please know you're not alone. We offer faith-based support and resources to help you move forward with courage and clarity. Visit https://leslievernick.com/guide to get your Quick Start Guide now. Dear friend, God does not call you to suffer in silence. You are His beloved daughter, worthy of safety, love, and respect. Abuse breaks the covenant—not you seeking safety. Take heart. You are not alone, and with God's help, healing and freedom are possible. May you find the strength to speak truth, seek safety, and walk forward in faith, one brave step at a time.

Episode 83 This week on Crime to Burn, we're doing something a little different. October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and this episode honors the extraordinary courage of Judy Malinowski — a woman whose strength changed the law and gave victims of domestic violence a voice that could never again be silenced. Judy was burned alive by her abuser and spent nearly two years in the hospital, fighting through unimaginable pain to testify against him. Her recorded testimony would later make history — becoming the first time in U.S. history that a victim testified at her own murder trial. Originally aired on You Should Be Here — a collaborative podcast series where true crime creators donate episodes to support victim advocacy charities — this episode reminds us that justice isn't just about the courtroom. It's about courage, resilience, and the lives rebuilt in the aftermath of violence. If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, help is available. Call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 or visit thehotline.org for confidential support.

Did you know that October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month? I hope you will join me to use the remaining weeks as a chance to educate yourself, spread awareness, advocate, and create visibility for this often under-discussed societal issue. Domestic violence (also known as intimate partner violence, battering, or spouse abuse) is a pattern of abusive behavior used in a relationship to gain control and power over an intimate partner. It happens to everyone across race, gender, socioeconomic status, education, and sexual orientation.Every minute, roughly 20 people are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States.Every year in the United States, more than 10 million women and men become victims of domestic violence. More women lose their lives to intimate partner violence than any other means. In the U.S. alone, more than 55 percent of murdered women are killed in relation to intimate partner violence. Nearly one million women have been shot by an intimate partner and have survived.Nearly 1 in 10 women (9.4%) in the US have been raped by an intimate partner in their lifetime.It is a persistent issue that finds victims feeling powerless and without means of support or escape. Most female victims of intimate partner violence were previously victimized by the same offender at rates of 77% for women ages 18 to 24, 76% for ages 25 to 34, and 81% for ages 35 to 49.Domestic violence continues to go unnoticed by many because it is underreported with only 52% of victims reporting the crime to the police in 2019.What you can do this month to support victims and survivors: Educate yourself. Read up on the issue.Share what you learn with others. Post on social media. Be brave. Be bold. Learn about what to do if someone comes to you for support. I will drop a separate mini-sode on this issue. Make a donation to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. You can visit them at https://ncadv.org/ and using the link in the show notes. Don't just consume true crime for entertainment. A lot of the stories portrayed in our favorite documentaries and podcasts are sad examples of the terror that a lot of women around the country are faced with daily. Share what you consume and talk about the content and the stories with friends and on social media. Again, be brave. Commit to sharing content on the topic all year long. Thank you for listening. Please keep following my podcasts as I will be dropping more content through the month.
