Jane discusses her experiences with domestic violence as a self confessed serial dater in her younger years. She talks about the social isolation from family and friends, the abuse, manipulation, power and control she suffered through at the hands of her two consecutive partners. She was dazzled by the money and high life the men offered her in Hong Kong and found herself in abusive relationships, where she could not break free. Jules also discusses her own personal experiences in her 20's. Both women, who see themselves as survivors, talk about red flags, trusting their instincts and dangerous patterns of behaviour.

A listener note: This podcast may be distressing to some people as the topic of intimate partner violence is discussed. There is also some swearing. Samaritans Hong Kong: 28960000
