Domestic violence doesn’t always look like what we imagine — and for many women, the danger begins long before the first moment of fear.

In this powerful episode, host - Mel Histon -  sits down with TikTok superstar and domestic violence advocate Paige Bush, who courageously shares her journey from escaping and surviving abuse to using her voice to support thousands of others.

Paige opens up about the complexities of abusive relationships, the subtle red flags that often go unnoticed, and how tactics like love bombing, isolation, and control slowly eroded her sense of self. She speaks candidly about the moment everything changed, the terrifying reality of leaving, and how the support of one safe friend became a lifeline.

Today, Paige uses her platform to educate, empower, and remind survivors that they’re not alone. Her honesty sheds light on the mental health impact of domestic violence, the importance of understanding healthy relationship dynamics, and the ongoing process of healing after trauma.

If you or someone you know has been affected by domestic or family violence, this conversation is a reminder that support exists — and that reclaiming your life is possible.
