Contents: This is a unique one-of-a-kind interview with author and domestic violence survivor Ricky Hunter. Interviewed by counsellor Jan Blumke from Brisbane, Australia, Jan explores with Ricky at a deep personal level what is means to be a survivor of (IPA) intimate partner abuse, torture and psychological terrorism.
Interview content covers the many in-depth and personal questions that delegates want to ask during Ricky’s workshop and don’t always get the opportunity to address.
During her life Ricky was faced with a horde of appalling choices. One of these choices, during her marriage, was whether to tell about the abuse or face the terrible prospect of her entire family being shot by the perpetrator. This DVD program tells her story of how she coped with these choices and how she finally escaped to freedom.
