MINI SERIES (Episode 7): Ensuring Safety When Leaving a DV Relationship with Laurie Arrowsmith
Manage episode 451148376 series 3549378
Content provided by Jane McFadden. All podcast content including episodes, graphics, and podcast descriptions are uploaded and provided directly by Jane McFadden or their podcast platform partner.

Today, we're diving into an important yet often difficult topic - what women need to consider for safety and support when thinking about leaving an abusive relationship. Laurie from White Ribbon Australia is a leading voice in domestic violence prevention and intervention. At White Ribbon Australia, she manages the Workplace Accreditation Program, fostering safer spaces for women and families. Laurie has dedicated her career to reducing violence, supporting survivors, and holding perpetrators accountable. Laurie’s here to walk us through those essential first steps, sharing insights that could make a world of difference.
Timestamps (approx):
- 1 min – Key steps to consider before leaving an abusive relationship, including understanding the risks and preparing for safety.
- 4 mins – Creating an escape plan with essentials like a “go bag” and securing digital privacy.
- 7 mins – The role of support networks in combating isolation and offering safety when planning to leave.
- 10 mins – Legal protections: applying for intervention orders and working with domestic violence officers for added safety.
- 12 mins – Importance of seeking legal advice and considering mediation as an alternative to family court.
- 17 mins – Exploring options to remain in the home safely by legally removing the partner through sole occupancy orders.
- 20 mins – Recognising manipulation tactics like “love bombing” and the importance of reaching out for guidance.
TRIGGER WARNING: This podcast series discusses topics that may be distressing to some listeners, including child abuse, physical and sexual abuse, and emotional trauma. If you or someone you know is affected by these issues, please prioritise your well-being and consider listening to a different episode or proceed with caution. If you feel overwhelmed at any point, it's okay to take a break or seek support.
Let’s be real - we can’t change or cover everything in one podcast series. But what we can do is start the conversation. If this episode helps even one person recognise the signs of abuse or points them toward safety, it’s worth it. It’s not about perfection, it’s about offering hope and shedding light on what’s often kept in the dark.

Support and Help Lines
If you or someone you know is in an abusive situation, reaching out to professionals can be life-changing. I don't want to create resources on a website with no 'quick exit' function. A quick exit function on domestic violence (DV) websites is designed to protect individuals who may be in immediate danger while seeking help or information online. Many victims of DV are closely monitored by their abusers, including their online activities. The quick exit button allows users to leave the website instantly and redirects them to a neutral site, like a search engine, with one click.
