Listen to this episode featuring 2 real-life sisters sharing their stories of overcoming abusive relationships. Jannese has shared bits of recently divorcing her ex-husband after 10 years of marriage and this episode is the first time she is sharing her story to the world. We hope that we can shine the light on all types of abuse that are left unspoken. Abuse is abuse and no matter what it looks like, and shouldn't be acceptable to tolerate in any relationship.

*Note: If you or someone you know is being abused, please call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE or visit thehotline.org.
