They rebrand. In this episode of the We Survive Abuse Podcast, Tonya GJ Prince explores a familiar pattern in abuse, sexism, and misogyny: the person who reinvents themselves just enough to escape responsibility while still participating in the same culture of silencing violence and abuse against women and girls.<br /><br />Through the short fable <b>The Man Who Changed His Coat,</b> this episode examines how harmful people often trade in old language for softer words, new identities, cleaner images, spiritual vocabulary, public innocence, or claims of growth without doing the hard work of repair.

They rebrand. In this episode of the We Survive Abuse Podcast, Tonya GJ Prince explores a familiar pattern in abuse, sexism, and misogyny: the person who reinvents themselves just enough to escape responsibility while still participating in the same culture of silencing violence and abuse against women and girls.<br /><br />Through the short fable <b>The Man Who Changed His Coat,</b> this episode examines how harmful people often trade in old language for softer words, new identities, cleaner images, spiritual vocabulary, public innocence, or claims of growth without doing the hard work of repair. Because a new coat is not the same as a changed heart.<br /><br />This conversation is for survivors, advocates, truth-tellers, and anyone who has watched someone cause violence and abuse, rename themselves, refuse accountability, and then accuse women of being divisive for remembering the stones.

This book is a must-read!   Here are some of the most well-known quotes and lessons from "The Gift of Fear": “I encourage people to remember that "no" is a complete sentence.”   “No” is a word that must never be negotiated, because the person who chooses not to hear it is trying to control you.”   “Niceness is a decision, a strategy of social interaction; it is not a character trait.”   “It is understandable that the perspectives of men and women on safety are so different--men and women live in different worlds...at core, men are afraid women will laugh at them, while at core, women are afraid men will kill them.”   “There’s a lesson in real-life stalking cases that young women can benefit from learning: persistence only proves persistence—it does not prove love. The fact that a romantic pursuer is relentless doesn’t mean you are special—it means he is troubled.”   “Denial is a save now, pay later scheme.”   “If you tell someone ten times that you don’t want to talk to him, you are talking to them—nine more times than you wanted to.”   “The solution to violence in America is the acceptance of reality”   “Believing that others will react as we would is the single most dangerous myth of intervention.”     “We must learn and then teach our children that niceness does not equal goodness. Niceness is a decision, a strategy of social interaction; it is not a character trait. People seeking to control others almost always present the image of a nice person in the beginning. Like rapport-building, charm and the deceptive smile, unsolicited niceness often has a discoverable motive.”   “Only human beings can look directly at something, have all the information they need to make an accurate prediction, perhaps even momentarily make the accurate prediction, and then say that it isn't so.”                                                    ---   Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/message Support this podcast: <a href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/support" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/support</a>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">5fe00794-d34a-4fbd-9ad1-7a8edc300832</guid><pubDate>Sun, 30 Jun 2024 08:12:21 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/60554088/797b2531_cc9e_871e_af4e_cdc5a300247b.mp3" length="3844388" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>Tonya GJ Prince</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Published in 1997, lessons from Gavin de Becker's The Gift of Fear have saved lives.

I am hoping that there comes a day when victims of violence and abuse can look to the church and know instantly that every house of faith is a refuge for them because every house of faith stands for and with victims of violence and not against them.  There is no call to be silent about abuse &amp; violence in the church." <br /> Tonya GJ Prince from <a href="https://www.wesurviveabuse.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">WESurviveAbuse.com</a>, <a href="https://www.survivoraffirmations.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">SurvivorAffirmations.com</a>,  <a href="https://www.braidtheladder.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BraidtheLadder.org</a>, gives voice to healthful affirmations and reminders.

What Does “Boundary” mean? A boundary signifies a limit that a person has.  Can be physical or emotional.  Boundaries are like contracts, “I won’t do anything to harm you” and “I expect you not to do anything to harm me. When you’re raising kids to have healthy boundaries, it’s important to allow the children to have and express their own feelings. The best way to teach children healthy boundaries is for parents to have healthy boundaries themselves and to model them in the home. Showing respect for each person in the house,  ensuring everyone has rights to their feelings and  appropriate expressions of them,  and talking openly and honestly about any challenging issues demonstrate healthy boundaries for children. <br /> Featuring Tonya GJ Prince from WESurviveAbuse.com  ---   Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/message Support this podcast: <a href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/support" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/support</a>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">645f060f-5e14-4b5d-ad32-4981b2a4d964</guid><pubDate>Tue, 29 Jun 2021 17:41:59 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/60553449/18375c92c7b35e093319a09b98b0900d.mp3" length="35265867" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>Tonya GJ Prince</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Notes from this episode: A child who grows up in a home having healthy limits will also learn to apply such boundaries in his own life.

Women &amp; girls who speak about the violence and abuse that they experienced are often accused of being "vile" even hateful. This is wrong and unacceptable.   Women and girls are only telling true stories about violence inflicted upon them. If we women and girls were better protected, there would be no ugliness to speak of. Tonya GJ Prince tells a short story about how language is important to Survivors of sexual violence. She talks about how a television movie finally gave her language to break the silence around years of child abuse.  __________________________________ <br /> Tonya GJ Prince from <a href="https://www.wesurviveabuse.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">WESurviveAbuse.com</a>, <a href="https://www.survivoraffirmations.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">SurvivorAffirmations.com</a>, and <a href="https://www.braidtheladder.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BraidtheLadder.org</a> gives voice to healthful affirmations and reminders.

Women &amp; girls who speak about the violence and abuse that they experienced are often accused of being "vile" even hateful. This is wrong and unacceptable.   Women and girls are only telling true stories about violence inflicted upon them. If we women and girls were better protected, there would be no ugliness to speak of. Tonya GJ Prince tells a short story about how language is important to Survivors of sexual violence. She talks about how a television movie finally gave her language to break the silence around years of child abuse.  __________________________________ <br /> Tonya GJ Prince from <a href="https://www.wesurviveabuse.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">WESurviveAbuse.com</a>, <a href="https://www.survivoraffirmations.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">SurvivorAffirmations.com</a>, and <a href="https://www.braidtheladder.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BraidtheLadder.org</a> gives voice to healthful affirmations and reminders.
