Ingrid Dutton

According to the CDC and WHO, 1 in 3 American men will experience physical violence, sexual violence, or stalking by an intimate partner in their lifetime. Globally, 1 in 3 women will experience physical or sexual violence—most often at the hands of an intimate partner. Domestic violence isn’t always visible. Beyond physical and sexual abuse, it often includes emotional abuse, psychological manipulation, financial abuse, coercive control, and legal abuse—tactics designed to isolate, intimidate, and silence victims. I’m Ingrid Dutton, intimate partner violence and non-fatal strangulation survivor. On 1 in 3, I speak openly about the realities of domestic abuse and intimate partner violence, from covert control to court-enabled abuse. Every week, I share real survivor stories, expert interviews, and conversations that bring truth to the experiences so many endure in silence. This podcast exists to: Raise awareness and education around all forms of domestic abuseSupport victims, survivors, and familiesBreak down myths and stigma about abuseOffer healing insights and trauma-informed perspectivesAdvocate for systemic change and survivor empowerment Whether you're a survivor, supporter, ally, advocate, or professional in the field, this space is dedicated to truth, healing, and resilience.

    111-What Happens When an Abuser Posts Bail? Domestic Violence Bail Explained with David Stuckman

    Reporting an abuser is already difficult. For many survivors, the next terrifying question is: What happens if the abuser posts bail? In this episode of 1 in 3, Ingrid speaks with David Stuckman, President of the Professional Bail Agents of the United States, who brings more than 35 years of experience in the bail industry—from bounty hunting to leading a national network of bail professionals. Together we break down how the bail system actually works in domestic violence cases and what protections may be available for survivors. You’ll learn: • What happens after someone is arrested and posts bail • The step-by-step bail bond process, including premiums and collateral • How bail agents evaluate risk, family input, and criminal history • Why many bail agents require no-contact orders, treatment, and employment conditions • When a bail bondsman may refuse to write a bond • The difference between algorithmic pretrial release and human judgment • How GPS ankle monitors can alert survivors instantly if an offender gets too close • Why prior strangulation dramatically increases homicide risk David also shares real-world stories about refusing dangerous bonds, working with judges to place defendants into rehab, and enforcing strict bail conditions to protect communities. For survivors and advocates, we discuss practical steps including: • Victim notification systems • Requesting stronger protective conditions • Documenting violations • Understanding your options when someone is released pretrial This conversation sheds light on a system many people fear—but few understand. If you’re a survivor, advocate, or simply want to understand how bail and victim safety intersect, this episode will give you clarity.

    109-Signals Of Control: Naming Abuse Clearly with Dr. Merideth Thompson

    Power doesn’t always leave a bruise. In Episode 109 of the 1 in 3 Podcast, negotiation professor and relationship scientist Dr. Merideth Thompson breaks down the subtle but devastating patterns of emotional abuse, financial control, and gaslighting — and how they slowly erode self-trust. We explore: • Early signs of emotional control • How gaslighting creates chronic self-doubt • The hidden impact of financial abuse • Why accountability is a clear marker of a safe partner • Trauma-aware documentation strategies • Rebuilding financial independence after years of control • The 90-day rule for safer dating after abuse Dr. Thompson blends research and lived experience to explain how relationships slide from “something feels off” to full coercive control — and how to interrupt that pattern early. She is the founder of Partner Lab, a research-based company that uses data from relationship psychology to help people navigate relationship decision-making. Instead of relying on guesswork, Partner Lab applies evidence-based relationship science to provide practical tools for identifying healthy and unhealthy relationship dynamics. She also serves on the Survivor Advisory Board of Finability, a nonprofit that helps financially empower domestic abuse survivors. Healing is possible. When control ends, life expands.

    108-Reproductive Coercion & Post-Separation Abuse: From Control to Courage with Lynn Stroud

    Reproductive coercion isn’t a misunderstanding — it’s abuse. In this episode of 1 in 3, Lynn joins Ingrid to break down how pregnancy pressure, sabotaged birth control, stealthing, and financial control strip away autonomy long before survivors recognize what’s happening. We move beyond headlines to define reproductive coercion in real life: Stealthing and condom removal without consentBirth control sabotageWithholding money for abortion or prenatal careGuilt disguised as romancePregnancy used as a control tacticBut coercion rarely ends there. Lynn explains how abuse escalates into financial abuse, post-separation abuse, and custody retaliation. We discuss how family court systems sometimes mislabel protective parents as “alienators,” how mandated reporters fail to act, and why children’s disclosures are too often minimized. Lynn serves on the National Domestic Violence Hotline’s Southern Regional Advisory Committee and leads a Knowledge Exchange focused on legal literacy for survivors. Her policy goal: codify reproductive coercion in Texas and treat stealthing as sexual assault under the law. This conversation offers:  ✔ Clear definitions of reproductive abuse  ✔ Practical steps for documentation  ✔ Legal literacy tools for survivors  ✔ How to find trauma-informed support  ✔ How to teach teens about coercive control If you’ve ever wondered whether pregnancy pressure “counts,” this episode gives language to what many families endure in silence.

    107-From Chaos to Compassion with Malisa Hepner: Healing Complex Trauma

    A life can begin in chaos and still choose compassion.  In this powerful episode of 1 in 3, Ingrid sits down with Malisa to explore healing complex trauma shaped by childhood neglect, addiction, and domestic violence. Together, they unpack trauma not as a single event, but as years without safety—and why healing often begins with who showed up when it hurt. Malisa shares how perfectionism, achievement, and “being the golden child” became survival strategies for many Gen X and elder millennials, and how unspoken expectations can create lifelong patterns of shame and betrayal. Using the Finding Peace method, archetypes, and clear language for emotional wounds—loss, neglect, betrayal—Malisa shows how naming pain helps triggers finally make sense. This conversation also dives into nervous system regulation after burnout. Instead of labeling every low cycle as depression, Malisa reframes it as depletion—learning to anticipate emotional highs and lows, meet exhaustion with rest and warmth, and build a repeatable self-care toolkit without judgment. We talk about: Healing complex trauma without self-blameNervous system regulation and burnout recoveryShame, self-forgiveness, and emotional neglectSomatic tools to return to the bodyBreaking generational cycles and changing family scriptsWhy your worth was never up for debateThis episode is for anyone healing from childhood trauma, emotional neglect, or chronic burnout—and learning how to love themselves with more ease.

    106-When Masculinity Turns Dangerous: Consent, Power, and Violence Through Immersive Art with Christopher Quigley

    What if confronting masculinity required stepping inside it? In this episode of 1 in 3, Ingrid sits down with artist Christopher Quigley, whose immersive traveling installation asks men and boys to physically experience how power, consent, and violence are learned—and how quickly harm can unfold. Across eight sound-sealed bathroom stalls, participants are immersed in scenarios shaped by locker room culture, coercive language, and exhaustion that blurs consent. From a stall where misogyny is passed through jokes and laughter, to the “71 No's” consent experience that challenges the idea of a pressured yes, to the chilling “21-Second” stall that reveals how fast violence can escalate, this work forces reflection not just in the mind—but in the body. The conversation expands beyond art into prevention, economics, and policy. We unpack the real financial cost of domestic violence, why prevention outperforms awareness campaigns, and how education—especially for legal and community gatekeepers—can interrupt coercive control before it becomes physical harm. This is art as public health. Art as accountability. And art as a catalyst for cultural change. Subscribe, share, and leave a review to help more people find this conversation—and help accelerate the erosion of harm.

    105-Why Male Voices Matter In Ending Abuse with Anthony Pasquini

    What role do men play in ending domestic violence—and why does their silence matter? In this episode of 1 in 3 Podcast, attorney and former prosecutor Anthony Pasquini joins Ingrid for a candid conversation about male accountability, allyship, and the power of everyday intervention. Anthony shares the moment that shifted his work from the courtroom to community advocacy, after noticing how quickly men disengaged from conversations about abuse. Together, the discussion explores how abuse escalates from subtle control to coercion and violence when harmful behaviors go unchallenged. Anthony offers practical, realistic ways men can interrupt that cycle—without grandstanding—by setting boundaries, shutting down objectifying language, checking in when something feels off, and choosing empathy over silence. The episode also highlights WINGS, a Chicago-area organization providing safe housing for survivors, children, and pets, along with education on domestic violence, strangulation, and traumatic brain injuries. Anthony explains why memory gaps in survivors may reflect injury rather than inconsistency—and why this understanding is critical for law enforcement, prosecutors, and healthcare providers. If you’ve ever wondered how to help someone experiencing abuse, this episode offers a grounded framework: be safe, be clear, be steady. You don’t need to be a survivor to stand with survivors—and you don’t need a platform to make a difference.

    104-The Badge Doesn’t Make You Immune: Coercive Control & Trafficking with Mia Shagena

    One in three women will experience domestic violence. But what happens when the survivor wears a badge? In this episode of 1 in 3, Ingrid speaks with Mia, a law enforcement officer who entered policing at 21 and was groomed, isolated, and assaulted by a senior officer who framed abuse as “consent” and control as “lifestyle.” Her story exposes how coercive control works behind closed doors and inside institutions meant to protect. We break down the dangerous overlap between domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking, and why survivors are so often failed when systems treat these crimes as separate issues. Mia explains how compliance is rewarded, resistance is punished, and identity is slowly erased until survival is mistaken for choice. This conversation explores: Coercive control and grooming in intimate partner violenceWhy “she could have left” is a myth rooted in misunderstanding traumaHow trafficking doesn’t always involve money—status, access, and dominance are “things of value”Evidence beyond DNA: strangulation markers, threats to career, financial abuse, digital trails, and witness groomingProbable cause vs. proof beyond a reasonable doubt and why totality of circumstances mattersMia also introduces the Valkyrie Warrior Movement, a training initiative focused on trauma-informed investigations, lethality assessments, and survivor-centered practices for law enforcement, healthcare providers, and allied professionals. For survivors inside and outside the system, this episode delivers a powerful reminder: shame belongs to abusers, not survivors—and help is worth pursuing until you find it.
