But instead of being seen as a victim , Robin became the target of a vicious media backlash. She was portrayed as a gold digger, controlling and “the most hated woman in America.” This episode examines what happened to Robin and how society has historically treated women who speak out —especially when the person they accuse is powerful, famous, and beloved by the public.

Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! This episode covers a deeply serious and ongoing issue — the femicide epidemic in Northern Ireland, where a pattern of women being killed by men, often in the context of domestic abuse, continues to emerge. In Part One, I break down what femicide means, why these cases aren’t isolated, and how warning signs are too often missed. It’s a heavy conversation — but an important one, because these are real lives, not just headlines.

In the first episode of 2026, IPV and Me examines the allegations made by Amanda Brown against former Irish rugby player Davy Tweed. We look at the abuse experienced by Amanda and her family, the impact it had on their lives, and the broader questions it raises about reputation, power, and accountability. When someone widely admired is accused of harm, how does a community respond—and who gets believed? Help: thehotline.org Media: I was recently featured in CanvasRebel’s “Stories Behind the Most Meaningful Projects” series, where I shared the inspiration behind IPV and Me and my work advocating for survivors of domestic abuse.

Long before MomTok or The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, Mayci Neeley was navigating a world shaped by rigid expectations, faith, and vulnerability. In this episode of IPV and Me, I explore Mayci’s journey through the pressures of the Mormon Church and the abusive relationships that followed—experiences in which she was repeatedly taken advantage of by men who exploited her trust. Drawing from her memoir, Told You So, this episode unpacks Mayci’s path to self-awareness, survival, and ultimately reclaiming her voice. It’s a powerful conversation about coercion, control, and the resilience it takes to break free and tell your story on your own terms. Links: Help: thehotline.org Merch has launched!!!!!!: Big news!

I’m taking a break from interviews and storytelling to just sit down and talk — about life, healing, and what it means to reach ten years since I left my abuser.

Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! In this episode of IPV and Me – My Journey with Domestic Abuse, I’m sharing the story of Kerry Katona. Many people know Kerry as a singer, TV personality, and someone who has lived much of her life in the public eye. But behind the fame, she was also living through the pain and fear of domestic abuse. Kerry’s story is a powerful reminder that abuse can happen to anyone, no matter who they are or what their life looks like from the outside. In telling her journey, I want to highlight not only the challenges she faced but also the strength and resilience it takes to survive and speak out.

In Part Two of our deep dive into the 1996 murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier, we examine the man who would come to dominate headlines: Ian Bailey. As the Garda investigation unfolds, Bailey—a local journalist—emerges not just as a reporter covering the case, but as its prime suspect. We explore the timeline of events, the contradictions in Bailey’s statements, and his troubling history of violence. Through this lens, we look at how power, control, and manipulation can echo in both intimate relationships and high-profile cases. As always on IPV and Me, we center the reality of coercive dynamics and the impact of gender-based violence. This episode contains descriptions of violence and abuse.

In this special two-part, I examine the tragic and deeply unsettling case of Sophie Toscan du Plantier— a French woman who was brutally murdered outside her holiday home in West Cork, Ireland, just before Christmas in 1996. In Part One, I’ll walk you through Sophie’s life, the days leading up to her death, and the strange, isolated setting where this horrific crime took place. We’ll look at the early investigation, the rumors that began to swirl, and the man who quickly emerged as the prime suspect: Ian Bailey. Sophie’s story touches on issues of power, control, violence, and the way women are often failed by justice systems—no matter where they are in the world.
