Today we are discussing a very difficult topic but something so important. We have Jess Hill with us today. Jess is an award winning investigative journalist who has really put the difficult conversations regarding domestic violence and coercive control into the forefront of Australian media.

Her book “see what you made me do” and SBS program of the same name introduced us to attempting to understand how and why domestic violence is such a problem in Australia. She has also recently started a podcast on this topic called “The Trap.”

DV and conversations around coercive control is something close to our hearts. Some of you will remember the beautiful Bianca who joined us a few months ago on the pod, and told the tragic story of her sister Katie losing her life at the hands of her partner. Bianca’s story was first shared on Jess Hill’s SBS program and that is how we came to know Bianca.

Having Jess with us today brings that story full circle and hopefully we shed some more light on a situation that is far too prevalent.


We talk:

  • Domestic violence and coercive control
  • Early signs
  • Love bombing and perspecticide
  • Why it is not always so easy to "just leave"
  • Behaviours like location tracking
  • Groups and people at risk
  • How it affects families including children
  • Problems with the system
  • Where both the victim and perpetrator can get help


You can listen to "The trap" here


If you know anyone that may benefit from this episode in some way please send it their way and share the love, because, well, we love love. x
