PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS EPISODE CONTAINS DISCUSSIONS OF DOMESTIC ABUSE. In this podcast episode, hosts Chris and Andy sit down with Preetee Hylton, a dedicated dental nurse and the President-elect of the British Association of Dental Nurses (BADN). Preetee shares her journey into the dental profession, which she has grown to love despite an initially different career outlook. Preetee delves into her upbringing, discussing whether her parents' careers influenced her path into dentistry. She reveals the pivotal moments and motivations that led her to become a dental nurse and reflects on the experiences gained by working in various settings throughout her career. She talks about how career has evolved from patient-facing roles to more management-focused responsibilities and discusses the importance of raising awareness about domestic abuse within the dental profession, highlighting the unique position dental practices have in maintaining ongoing relationships with their patients. She also touches on the general treatment and perception of dental nurses in the field. As she prepares to assume the role of president-elect of the BADN in October, she shares her feelings about this new responsibility, outlines her plans and shares her views on the best and worst aspects of working in dentistry.   Topics: - What was your upbringing like? - Are your parents in dentistry? - What was the spark to get into the profession? - After you qualified did you settle down or move around to gain a broad range of experience? - Has your own career seen you move away from patient facing and more into management? - Raising awareness of domestic abuse – is this something that dentistry has a role to play? - Treatment of dental nurses in practices – how is this in general? - Your role as president-elect of the BADN – what's your agenda? - What's the best and worst thing about dentistry?

They can commit the most abhorrent, alien of acts. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, including injury detail, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

In this thought-provoking episode of Coaching Uncaged, Animas Centre Director Robert Stephenson is joined by actor, coach and domestic violence and sexual harassment prevention trainer Andrew Macklin. Robert and Andrew thoughtfully explore the topic of domestic violence, and how it might show up in the coaching space, particularly for those coaches that work within a relationship coaching context.  Andrew draws on his experience as a domestic violence prevention trainer and coach as he shares this world from a coaching perspective, touching on patterns of behaviour, the notion of identifying what makes a relationship healthy or unhealthy, and the importance of building an awareness of the early signs that show up around domestic violence that can be key in its prevention. Andrew also touches on some of the common myths associated with domestic violence, as well as offering some resources, statistics, frameworks and models that can be useful in bringing a coachee's awareness to what is considered a healthy or unhealthy relationship and how this may be showing up or affecting other areas of their life. Andrew also shares that while a recognition of when someone needs professional support is paramount, the held and heard space of a coaching session can be key in supporting those that are facing domestic violence by helping to rebuild feelings of agency and competence.  He highlights that while boundaries, self-awareness and comfort are key in this space, if as coaches we are able to avoid trying to cure or solve the issue for the client, and able to recognise that we are but one piece of the puzzle - a piece that might just be offering a space for the coachee to share and feel heard - coaches can play a crucial role in this incredibly important area.  You can find out more about Andrew and his work here: http://www.andrewmacklin.com/ Below are some useful helplines that offer support for those facing domestic violence: National Domestic Violence Helpline - 0808 2000 247 www.womensaid.org.uk You can freephone the 24-hour National Domestic Violence Helpline, calls to this number will not show up on BT landline phone bills.

#TheOutspoken is the only podcast where you, the listener takes charge of the conversation and in Episode 7 we're tackling our toughest topic yet....Coercive Control.When a listener got in touch to say that she wanted to tell the story of the abuse she suffered in her marriage, she was incredibly nervous yet certain that is felt like the right thing to do. In this episode she tells us what it felt like to be caught in a relationship where her husband gradually reduced and controlled her in practically every way. She wanted to tell her story, in her words, "not out of revenge to my ex, but because if I can help one person in a similar situation to the one I was in, I will have done my job".Later on I interview Dr Emma Katz who is a Senior Lecturer in Childhood and Youth at Liverpool Hope University as well as being an expert on Coercive Control. Dr Emma talks us through all the warning signs to look out for and how to get help when you're in a relationship like this.If you listen to this episode and need help or advice, Dr Emma has kindly provided these links for us:Surviving Economic Abuse: https://survivingeconomicabuse.org/Freephone 24 hr National Domestic Violence Helpline - 0808 2000 247Get support from Women's Aid over live chat: https://chat.womensaid.org.uk/Refuge: https://www.refuge.org.uk/get-involved/contact-us/The Men’s Advice Line for male domestic abuse survivors - 0808 801 0327National Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans+ Domestic Abuse Helpline - 0800 999 5428Helpful books: ⦁ Invisible Chains: Overcoming Coercive Control in Your Intimate Relationship⦁ Why Does He Do That?: Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling MenDr Emma Katz's work, which focuses on impacts of coercive control on children and mothersWhen Coercive Control Continues to Harm Children: Post-Separation Fathering, Stalking, and Domestic Violence Coercive Control: Five Factors that Influence Closeness, Distance and Strain in Mother-Child RelationshipsHow Children Living with Domestic Violence are Harmed By and Resist Regimes of Coercive ControlRecovery-Promoters: Ways that Mothers and Children Support One Another’s Recoveries from Domestic ViolenceIf you have something that you would like to talk about on #TheOutspoken email me nicola@outspokenbeauty.co.uk

Anissa, Linda E, Luanda Yasmin and Sophie Hannah ask whether the UK public can be trusted to maintain social distancing, what constitutes sexual assault and why it takes some women a long time to report abuse, whether the Windrush generation are owed more than just thanks and compensation from the UK government, and if “buying black” truly supports the community when raw materials and products are manufactured elsewhere.--------------------------------------- FOLLOW THE CONVERSATION #EthnicallySpeakingInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/unitedmelanincoFacebook: https://facebook.com/unitedmelanincoTwitter: http://instagram.com/unitedmelanincoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/unitedmelaninco/YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/c/UnitedMelaninGroupGet in touch with us: ethnicallyspeaking@unitedmelaningroup.com---------------------------------------- LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE https://unitedmelaningroup.com/es003(Website – Show notes) https://www.ontherecordfilm.co.uk/watch-at-home(Film – On the record – Documentary)https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/m000jyxy/i-may-destroy-you?seriesId=m000jyxv(TV series – I May Destroy You – Michaela Coel on BBC iPlayer)https://www.windrushday.org.uk/(Website – Windrush Day)https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/windrush-lessons-learned-review(PDF – Windrush Lessons Learned Review: independent review by Wendy Williams – Report)https://www.instagram.com/ezewraps/ (Satin-lined African Headscarfs – @ezewraps Instagram)SUPPORT FOR THOSE AFFECTED BY SEXUAL ASSAULTWhere you go for help can depend on what's available in your area and what you want to do.

According to Women's Aid, domestic abuse is "an incident or pattern of incidents of controlling, coercive, threatening, degrading and violent behaviour." In the majority of cases, domestic violence is committed by a partner or ex partner, but it can also be perpetrated by a family member or carer. In the vast majority of cases, domestic violence victims are quite often women. Domestic abuse can come in many forms, including but not limited to coercive control, psychological and or emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, financial abuse, harrassment and stalking. Coercive control is defined as an act designed to make a person dependent on them by isolating them from support and depriving them of independence. Common examples of coercive behaviour include making threats or intimidating you, taking control over aspects of your everyday life and humiliating, degrading or dehumanising you. Women's Aid suggests that women are much more likely to experience domestic abuse than men and that domestic abuse occurs regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, religious beliefs, sexuality, class or disability.

*Discretion advised - TW for physical and emotional abuse*I've decided to share the story of my eldest's birth. One of the sweetest days of my life. Ive decided its important to ask discuss the background of my relationship with my partner at the time, to bring awareness to the fact that one in four women experiences domestic abuse or domestic violence at some point in their lives. It can be physical, sexual, emotional, psychological or financial, and is often a combination of these types.

Save Meduza!https://support.meduza.io/enIn life and in news reporting, violence against women is a sadly “evergreen” topic, but the issue has taken on new and growing momentum in Russia, where there's a rising number of high-profile cases involving rape and self-defense. Meduza has reported extensively on these investigations, and, in this first episode of “The Naked Pravda,” managing editor Kevin Rothrock speaks to a handful of activists and journalists who are working to shed more light on these cases and the social movement that hopes to transform how Russia handles women's safety. In this episode: (1:20) In mid-October, after weeks of hesitation, a journalist in Veliky Novgorod publicly accused a colleague from another local news outlet of raping her. (Read Meduza's report here.) Why was she reluctant to speak openly about the assault? (5:22) Marina Pisklakova-Parker, the founder and chair of the board of the women's rights group “Center ANNA,” recalls how women's rights advocacy in Russia has evolved since the 1990s, and discusses the impact of being designated as a “foreign agent” by the Justice Ministry. (8:18) Hilah Kohen, Meduza's English-language news editor, argues that ethical storytelling in cases of sexual violence focuses on survivors and frames allegations in a broader social context.  (14:40) Elena Kalinina, a managing partner at the advertising agency “Room485,” explains how her team created an interactive game designed to raise awareness about domestic violence and abusive partners. (17:45) Anna Romashchenko, region coordinator for the advocacy group “Nasiliu.net” (No to Violence), talks about creating safe spaces for women in Russia and the unexpected demographics of views about women's rights.  (20:18) Ola Cichowlas, AFP's Moscow correspondent, recounts her story about a woman in Moscow who was prosecuted for defending herself against an abusive partner. (23:26) Nastya Krasilnikova, who writes on Telegram about representations of women in the Russian media, argues that many news outlets actively “hate women,” but there is more willingness now than before to talk about sexual assault. If you or someone you know is in an unsafe relationship, there are resources available, like the National Domestic Violence Hotline in the U.S. and the National Domestic Violence Helpline in the UK. In Russia, you can contact Nasiliu.net, Center ANNA, and other groups. “The Naked Pravda” comes out on Fridays.

For this episode, we are looking at controlling and abusive relationships. Domestic abuse is often hidden behind closed doors, but for this episode we are joined by the charity Women’s Aid to bring it out into the open. We are joined by Sian Hawkins, Head of Campaigns and Public Affairs at Women’s Aid and Alex, a support worker on the National Domestic Violence Helpline which the charity runs in partnership with Refuge. Just to clarify, the charity does not endorse any products featured on this podcast or the podcast’s sponsors. In this episode we discuss Lala's followers topics including: What are the red flags for an abuser? How do you move on from someone who won't let you go? I am struggling with different information from social services and housing about what my rights are? My partner hurts me but I am dependent on him financially and emotionally. Do perpetrators programmes work? My friend is in a violent relationship, how can I make her leave him? My violent ex has a new girlfriend - should I warn her about him? I miss my abuser even though things were awful when I was with him. How do I handle mutual friends and family who have been charmed by the abuser and victim blame? Can an abuser change without professional help? My ex always put me down, how can I stop his words ringing through my head now I'm dating again? How do you help children who have witnessed DV? I have had 3 abusive partners - how do I break the cycle? What legal support is available? Why do survivors stay for so long? How can you ever trust anyone again after an abusive relationship? If a guy is really jealous and wants to control your every move is that domestic violence? Is it abuse if it is physical but non-serious like slapping, pushing, grabbing etc? Is it normal to suffer from PTSD after an abusive relationship? I am scared to leave my abusive partner because he has threatened to commit suicide if I do. And much more!!

As a relational communication teacher, Alysa is often asked by students what they should do if they believe their friend is in an abusive relationship. So, to build awareness during Domestic Violence Month, Alysa sits down with, Brooke, Director of Central Michigan University’s Sexual Aggression Services, to learn more about domestic violence and what friends and loved ones may expect if someone they love is being abused.

Facing your fears! I feel it each time I hit record, but what motivates me is the opportunity to share my experiences and teach! In this episode I talk about how fear makes our lives smaller, if I listened to it, I’d never have recorded these podcasts, and I wouldn’t be connecting with all of these amazing listeners! My life would be smaller. I talk about habitual patterns of tension, how to start tracking them and I also suggest that we identify too strongly with fear… So I feel something before I record these episodes, but if something happened and I couldn’t record them anymore… I’d actually feel pretty disappointed… So perhaps the thing I feel is in fact a kind of excitement. _________________________________________________________________________ I mention domestic abuse in this episode, if that’s something you’ve experienced or would like support with, please call the National Domestic Violence Helpline 0808 2000 247 24.

We speak to Clemmie Hooper - aka the midwife and influencer Mother of Daughters, who recently suspended her Instagram account after the trolling got too much - about why men and women are not equal in the eyes of social media. Why doesn't her husband, Simon (aka Father of Daughters), who exists in exactly the same family and has twice the amount of followers, get nearly so much abuse? We talk misogyny and mothering; why women aren't allowed to be financially successful in the same way men are; and why the best thing to do is to just rise above. Also today, we make Producer Charlie's week, and discuss The World Cup - High Low style.For anyone experiencing domestic abuse or if you know of someone who is and want to help them, please call The National Domestic Violence Helpline on 0808 2000 247.
