I am a survivor of Intimate Partner Violence. Here I share my story with you, as well as give advice on everything I've learned over my recovery; how to spot an abuser, how to leave safely, how to get help and how to live life as a survivor of abuse. I have learned so much during my own experience and also as a spokesperson for domestic abuse with the Allstate Foundation.
