Ep. 626 - Young Mother Finds Hope and Healing After Fleeing an Abusive Relationship - Stacy Kaye

Moments after her toddler pointed out a mark on her neck - a mark left there by her abusive husband - Stacy Kaye knew that her children could not grow up in a home where their mother gets abused by their father. Stacy is a survivor of domestic violence and the author of Damaged Goods: A Devotional For the Slightly Imperfect. She shares her story of surviving domestic abuse from her ex-husband at an early stage in their marriage, how she got out of the toxic situation, and why it is so important to know the signs of domestic abuse as early as possible in a relationship. Sometimes, domestic abuse can happen even to the most unsuspecting people. Stacy was a fiery and outspoken young woman, and her ex-husband strived to destroy her bright personality.
