Changing the Culture Towards Consent, Betrayal and Abuse with Anne Blythe

Carla and Sherry first start the show talking about their preference for sweet vs. sour candies, and then they take a Love Fix question from a listener who feels like they are walking on eggshells around their partner. They are seeking advice on how to move on from past arguments and make some real progress, but aren’t even sure if their partner is open to it. They then welcome Anne Blythe, Founder of BTR.org and host of the Betrayal Trauma Recovery Podcast. BTR.org offers daily group sessions from women, victims of emotional and psychological abuse and sexual coercion with multiple sessions a day in every time zone. Anne is also the author of the educational picture book, Trauma Mama Husband Drama and a frequently requested speaker at events such as the National Center on Sexual Exploitation Global Summit.    We are offering complimentary break free from toxic and codependent relationship strategy calls that are exclusively our listeners.
