Opis

No More Secrets is the story of six women who participated in a narrative healing group at The Second Step - a domestic violence non-profit in Newton, Massachusetts. In a series of deeply personal conversations spanning four years, the women share their experiences of Intimate Partner Violence, and in the sharing, begin to heal. Together, they wrote No More Secrets to educate, inspire, and offer hope to survivors, families and communities.
"No More Secrets offers the best kind of help possible for women who are involved with abusive partners: the warmth, the wisdom, and the triumphs of other women who have come through destructive relationships, and who have found their way to freedom."
- Lundy Bancroft, author of Why Does He Do That? Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men
"By bravely sharing their stories, Allison, Becca, Donna-Marie, Cecilia, Olive and Selma speak to the strength of community in the most challenging times. Overcoming domestic violence requires each of us to support survivors and send them a resounding message that they will never be alone - this book does just that."
Congressman Joseph Kennedy III
"No More Secrets is an extraordinarily intimate look at the emotional lives and bitter experience of those who have lived through domestic violence and emerged into a community of love and hard-earned wisdom. These voices ring out clear and true."
