    Encore - Abuse, Part 1

    Joseph and Paula bring you Part 1 of one of their most listened to episodes. They will continue to bring you these Encore episodes in between their new ones, as requested by many listeners. We continue to be grateful for the engagement. This multi-episode topic is a tough one. Joseph and Paula are talking about abuse. This is not a pleasant topic, but definitely a necessary one. According to the National Statistics on Domestic Violence, nearly 20 people each minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. For one year, this equates to more than 10 million women and men. Those figures only take into account domestic violence. We are covering 8 different types of abuse. We are examining the different types of abuse, their symptoms, and how to seek support if you find yourself experiencing any of them and how to support a person who has.  Part 1 addresses Physical, Emotional, and Verbal Abuse. Due to the nature of the content, we hope you will take care while listening. Resources: You can visit the website we acquired our sourced material at ⁠HealthyPlace.com⁠.
