Author: rrapaport April 22, 2026 Duration: 1:03:57
Host Ron Rapaport discusses with certified domestic violence expert, advocate, high-conflict divorce coach, and author of the critically acclaimed book "Been There, Got Out" Lisa Johnson, about helping survivors to seek clarity, strength and a way forward. Lisa, who is not a lawyer, represented  herself  through scores of court appearances and her case was published in the Connecticut Law Journal in 2021 and her live testimony contributed to the passage of "Jennifer's Law", one of the first U.S. laws to expand the legal definition of domestic violence to include "coercive control" which is financial or emotional abuse.
