BONUS FW SERIES: "I know where you are." After she leaves

Author: FW July 13, 2025 Duration: 22:48

Trigger warning: domestic and family violence. 

1 in 4 women and 1 in 14 men have experienced violence from an intimate partner. This is a whole of society issue - including workplaces. That's why we wanted to share our latest series, There's No Place Like Home: After she leaves. This is episode two. 

After two women in Miranda’s* mothers group began to suspect she was being abused, they helped her finesse an escape plan for her and her baby. That’s when Justin’s* stalking began.  In this episode of There’s No Place Like Home: After she leaves, Tara Rae Moss shares Miranda’s story and investigates perpetrators who stalk and harass their former partners after they separate.

Helen McCabe, founder of the Future Women community, sits down each week for the Future Women Leadership Series. These conversations move beyond simple inspiration, delving into the real and often nuanced hurdles women encounter while advancing into executive roles. You’ll hear from a range of influential voices-CEOs, board directors, and pioneering thinkers-who don’t just share their success stories but unpack the complex decisions, setbacks, and resilience that shaped their journeys. This podcast provides a rare, candid look at the practicalities of building authority, navigating workplace dynamics, and fostering genuine loyalty within a team. It’s about the substance behind the title, offering actionable perspectives that both affirm and occasionally challenge conventional leadership wisdom. Tune in for thoughtful dialogue that recognises leadership is as much about courage and personal growth as it is about strategy. The entire series stems from the Future Women club, creating a direct audio line to the kind of frank discussions and insights usually reserved for its members. If you’re looking to refine your own approach with clarity and confidence, this is a compelling resource.
