When Love Turns Lethal Into You

    • Comedy Interviews

This month on Into You, we're getting serious as we delve into the dark depths of domestic abuse. I speak to two-time TED speaker and the author of Crazy Love, Leslie Morgan Steiner, about the roller coaster romance she had with her abusive ex-husband. Leslie was beaten, strangled and held at gunpoint on numerous occasions by a man who claimed to love her. She tells the story of how she fell into this relationship, how the abuse unfolded and what made it so hard to walk away from.

Leslie also smashes many stereotypes and misconceptions around abuse and highlights the importance of "breaking the silence" about this chilling subject.

Powerful, informative, captivating and authentic, Leslie's story has a lesson for everyone.
