Summary: <p>Are you in a relationship where your partner is trying to control, deny, punish, or extinguish your reality? These are some of the tricks abusers can use to gain control over another person! But there is definitely hope! This week, Girl EMPOWERED Host, Haile Thomas, shares her powerful and empowering conversation with Anita Bentata. Anita is an Australian domestic violence survivor & expert, speaker, psychotherapist, workshop & retreat facilitator, and the Author of "The Wolf in a Suit". Anita addresses abuse in the context of reinterpreted fairytales. She talks about the many signs and complexities of relationship abuse and about how oftentimes young girls aren’t given the tools to discern and negotiate abusive situations, and that we definitely need to be taught this so that we can protect ourselves. She also offers lots of tips and resources to help educate, enlighten, and empower all women and girls.</p>
