Forgiving someone doesn’t require a seat at your holiday table. It’s okay if peace, distance, and healing are the gifts you give yourself this year. Your boundaries are valid — and they don’t make you unkind. #HolidaySupport #YouDeservePeace #BTSADV

He was calculated about where he put bruises, covering my neck, wrists, legs. The first time people saw it, my face was swollen—I needed stitches. People knew there was DV, but didn't seem concerned. #DomesticViolence #Survivor

They may give you a seat… but that doesn’t undo the harm they refuse to acknowledge. Drop a “💜” if you’ve lived this holiday double life. #btsadv

Not every empty seat is about distance. Sometimes it’s about protection. If you spent Thanksgiving away from family to stay safe, you made the right choice — no matter what they say. 💜 You’re not alone. #btsadv

Economic abuse isn’t talked about enough. It happens when an abuser controls a survivor’s access to money, work, transportation, or basic resources — keeping them dependent and unable to leave safely. No one deserves to live under financial control.

The season of togetherness can be hardest for survivors whose families minimized, ignored, or enabled the abuse. If this time brings grief instead of joy, know this: your worth isn’t defined by family ties. It’s okay to choose boundaries, to choose space, to choose you. #BTSADV

She didn’t abandon the family — the family abandoned her truth. If you had to walk away to survive, we see you. #btsadv

Family secrets only protect the abuser. Being told to “keep the peace” or “don’t embarrass the family” teaches victims to mistrust their own experiences. Silence turns into shame, confusion, & the belief that their pain doesn’t matter. Healing begins with breaking the silence.

No one deserves to be hit for having a 'smart mouth.' Teaching self-control means keeping our hands to ourselves, regardless of what someone says. #SelfControl #Respect

Doing my makeup with my daughter tonight, it brought back memories of when I had my lip busted open. She even asked if the scar was still there. #MakeupMemories
