WHEN DATING HURTS

Evergreen Podcasts

A "must-listen-to" podcast on dating abuse and domestic violence, also known as intimate partner violence. . Hosted by Bill Mitchell, author of the memoir, WHEN DATING HURTS (Amazon), this book is about the murder of his daughter by her ex-boyfriend. Bill and his wife, Michele, lost Kristin to dating violence. She was brutally murdered in June 2005, just 20 days after her college graduation. FACT: 1 in 3 WOMEN suffer serious physical violence at the hands of intimate partners during their lifetimes. Typically, it happens between the ages of 16-24. But can happen at any age. It doesn't need to happen.  Bill interviews experts with key experiences in dating and domestic violence: • Actual survivors of intimate partner violence (dating abuse and domestic violence) • "DV" agency counselors • Law enforcement professionals • Parents of children who were either lost to, or somehow survived, dating violence After listening to the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, be sure to share it with those who need to hear it... Remember the 1 in 3 women statistic. It is real. The WHEN DATING HURTS memoir (paperback, eBook, audiobook) is only available on Amazon.

    354. Anna Astwood Speaks about Her New Book, "But He Said He Loved Me"

    This episode talks about a new book entitled, "But He Said He Loved Me." Anna Astwood has been a survivor guest on WHEN DATING HURTS twice. During her first interview, she said she started a book two decades ago, but put it away, and she did not finish it When she returned for her second interview in December 2025, she mentioned her book again. She was urged to pick up the book and bring it to a close. Then publish it. Well, she did. Here is what Amazon has to say about Anna's book: "But He Said He Loved Me"is a powerful and unflinching memoir about first love, manipulation, survival, and the long road back to oneself. At 15, Anna believe she had found the kind of love every teenage girl hopes for. But what began as an intense romance, slowly transformed itself into a relationship marked by control, threats, and escalating violence. Like many victims of abuse, she didn't leave – not because she was weak, but because she had been slowly conditioned to stay. "But He Said He Loved Me" is more than a memoir. It is a lifeline for survivors, a call to awareness for parents and educators, and a powerful reminder that love is not supposed to hurt.

    Introducing Domestic Violence Crisis Now Impacts 1 in 2 Women, with Oprah and author Rachel Louise Snyder from The Oprah Podcast. Follow the show: The Oprah Podcast When Oprah first addressed the topic of domestic violence back in 1986, one out of four women in the United States was impacted by domestic violence. Today, that number has escalated to one out of two women who will experience sexual violence, physical violence or stalking by an intimate partner in their lifetime. In this episode Oprah talks with journalist, writer and professor Rachel Louise Snyder. She is the author of the award-winning bestseller, No Visible Bruises, where she explores the domestic violence epidemic and how to combat it. She explains why domestic violence is becoming more prevalent, why a better term for it is “intimate partner terrorism,” the signs to look out for and what steps women can take to protect themselves and their families. Oprah and Rachel are joined by Susan, a former Oprah Show guest, who endured 17 years of physical and emotional abuse by her former husband - some of which her husband forced her then 13-year-old son to record on video. Also, in the fatal Ohio home invasion that grabbed headlines, the sister and brother-in-law of married couple Spencer and Monique Tepe join to talk about how Monique had experienced years of threatening behavior and emotional abuse from her surgeon ex-husband before he killed them both in their home in December 2025.

    356. Rereleasing Erin's Story - Pt 2 of 2 Pts - The Nightmare of Escaping Charlie's Demands & Total Control

    Content Warning & Disclaimer Please proceed with caution. This episode may be highly triggering for survivors of abuse and trauma. Listener discretion is strongly advised. This is the second part of a two-part story with Erin.  We interviewed Erin about three years ago, and her story has remained on our minds ever since. So, we're bringing it back to you. Erin was taken advantage of while she was suffering through a highly sensitive passage in her life. Her mother had just passed away. Charlie presented himself as the right answer at the right time.  Like many victims, she was an innocent, generous person. The kind of target predators are looking to lure straight into problematic relationships. She became easy prey. The warning signs of potential danger were there, but Erin didn’t interpret them. You will learn plenty from this powerful episode. You will see how difficult it is to break from an accomplished abuser. You need to hear Erin's story. Charlie's control over Erin goes off the charts. His demands are ridiculous, but her generous nature forces her to comply with his every request. Be sure you share this WHEN DATING HURTS episode with someone who's dating. Only through education can we help others to see what is plain sight.

    349. Karan’s Story: A Therapist’s Experience with Domestic Abuse, Trauma & Resilience

    Content Warning & Disclaimer Please proceed with caution. This episode may be highly triggering for survivors of abuse and trauma. Listener discretion is strongly advised. Karan told me she spent the past several months healing from a deeply harmful relational experience. She understands how stories like hers bring both awareness and healing, and so she wanted to share with us. What makes her story quite so unique? She is a therapist, which gives her a unique dual perspective. As she states: "both understanding relational dynamics (clinically), and living through the reality of them (personally)." The complications she had to solve will find many of us listening to her story more than a few times. Karan's desire is to take such a painful experience and use it to help others feel less alone, more informed, and more empowered to trust themselves. This was precisely what I was hoping she would do and she did this perfectly. Keywords & Themes: Trauma bonding, divorce, overcoming domestic abuse, single parent family struggles, women’s empowerment, and resilience. Host: Bill Mitchell If you're experiencing intimate partner abuse, coercive control, or narcissistic abuse—or if you suspect someone you care about is—Riel's story offers critical perspective on spotting red flags early, breaking free, and finding support. You're not alone, and recognizing the patterns can be the first step toward safety and recovery. Domestic violence resources are available 24/7—reach out if you need help.

    347. Financial Abuse in Abusive Relationships

    "Financial Abuse in Abusive Relationships" This episode is a blend of survivor-centered education, psychology, and clear red-flag guidance. And it's all grounded in research. We call this: Financial Abuse in Abusive Relationships. This is not an interview with a survivor. It is not red flags wrapped into a story. It is the red flags you need to know so you will never be fooled by someone trying to love bomb you -- or someone you love. It is a fairly short episode, so it is easily heard in one sitting. And so you can hear it again and again. You might want to take notes. This information can lead to peace of mond and even save someone's life. Host: Bill Mitchell If you're experiencing intimate partner abuse, coercive control, or narcissistic abuse—or if you suspect someone you care about is—Riel's story offers critical perspective on spotting red flags early, breaking free, and finding support.

About

A "must-listen-to" podcast on dating abuse and domestic violence, also known as intimate partner violence. . Hosted by Bill Mitchell, author of the memoir, WHEN DATING HURTS (Amazon), this book is about the murder of his daughter by her ex-boyfriend. Bill and his wife, Michele, lost Kristin to dating violence. She was brutally murdered in June 2005, just 20 days after her college graduation. FACT: 1 in 3 WOMEN suffer serious physical violence at the hands of intimate partners during their lifetimes. Typically, it happens between the ages of 16-24. But can happen at any age. It doesn't need to happen.  Bill interviews experts with key experiences in dating and domestic violence: • Actual survivors of intimate partner violence (dating abuse and domestic violence) • "DV" agency counselors • Law enforcement professionals • Parents of children who were either lost to, or somehow survived, dating violence After listening to the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, be sure to share it with those who need to hear it... Remember the 1 in 3 women statistic. It is real. The WHEN DATING HURTS memoir (paperback, eBook, audiobook) is only available on Amazon.
