Rerelease - Susan Saurman - Pt 1 of 2 - Her Father Murdered Her Mother

This story was first published a couple years back. I re-released it because it's just so full of helpful information. Susan Saurman is a survivor on several levels. Abused by her father when she was young, she also needed to heal from the day he murdered her dear mother. This is part one of a two-part story that spans decades. Susan has not let anything deter her from her mission to use her family's tragedy to help others. My admiration for Susan is immense. We continue to stay in touch and we support each other. Susan's book, "The Courage I Learned ", is on Amazon. Susan is a survivor who has helped thousands of victims to become survivors. NOTE: If you are a survivor and want to share your story of abuse on the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, please email me: BillMitchell@WhenDatingHurts.com The WHEN DATING HURTS book (paperback, eBook, and audiobook) can only be found on Amazon.

Om Podcasten

A "must-listen-to" podcast on dating abuse and intimate partner violence. This series is hosted by Bill Mitchell, author of the memoir, WHEN DATING HURTS (Amazon). This book is about the murder of Bill's daughter by her ex-boyfriend. Bill and his wife, Michele, lost Kristin to dating violence when she was brutally murdered in June 2005. It was 20 days after her college graduation. FACT: 1 in 3 WOMEN suffer serious physical violence at the hands of intimate partners during their lifetimes. Typically, it happens between the ages of 16-24. But can happen at any age. It doesn't need to happen.  Bill interviews experts with keen insights into dating and domestic violence: • "DV" agency counselors • Law enforcement professionals • Parents of children who were either lost to, or somehow survived, dating violence • Actual survivors of intimate partner violence After you listen to the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, share it with those who need to hear it... Remember the 1 in 3 women statistic.
