lovelustfridays | Toxicity, Trauma, and Trust | Surviving Domestic Violence and Focusing on Victim-Centric Stories

Host Jake Deptula and former family court judge and family law attorney Michele Locke sit down with Terra Newell, a victim advocate, public figure, and survivor of multiple toxic relationships.

They explore the complexities of toxic relationships and the expectations placed on survivors who become public figures. They also confront misconceptions stemming from media portrayals that often oversimplify these experiences, particularly beyond the sensational headlines of “Dirty John.” Additionally, they discuss the responsibilities of true crime content creators, focusing on the glorification of serial killer culture and the ethical considerations that come with storytelling. Also, how advocating for a victim-centered approach is essential for fostering safe spaces for survivors and recognizing that each individual's journey through trauma is uniquely their own.
