Isolation occurs when an abusive partner inserts themselves between a victim-survivor and the outside world - whether that’s psychologically, physically, spiritually, culturally, or financially. It can also look a lot like the "honeymoon phase" of a new romance, when a couple become so caught up in the thrill of one another that they shut themselves away from the outside world.

So how do you identify it?

Many of us have observed a new romance from afar and felt uncomfortable. But what’s the difference between simply not liking someone’s partner and suspecting something sinister is going on? What about when it’s your new partner?

Research tells us that more than half of all victims and survivors reach out to family and friends first. Whether you’re concerned about the wellbeing of a loved one or interrogating your own safety in a relationship, this season dives into the complex nuances of the warning signs of domestic abuse. 

From love bombing and gaslighting to isolation and financial control, this podcast will become a practical resource helping you interrogate the relationships in your life. 

There’s No Place Like Home is a Future Women podcast in collaboration with our proud partner, Commonwealth Bank, supporting long-term financial independence for victim-survivors through CommBank Next Chapter.

There’s No Place Like Home drops 11 July February 2023. New episodes drop weekly.
