BONUS FW SERIES: "The ultimate act of revenge." After she leaves

Trigger warning: domestic and family violence and homicide.  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.  In the first episode, we meet Dr Ann O’Neill. Dr O'Neill thought her estranged husband was moving on when he finally signed divorce papers. Days later, he killed their two young children. In the first episode of There’s No Place Like Home: After she leaves, Tara Rae Moss shares Dr O’Neill’s story and investigates perpetrators who commit “the ultimate act of revenge” post-separation.  Subscribe on Spotify or Apple Visit the official website Keep up with FW on Instagram, Facebook or LinkedIn and join FW to unlock professional development, training and community Learn more about CommBank Next Chapter If you or someone you know is affected by domestic, family and sexual violence, contact 1800RESPECT, the national service for free and confidential counselling, information and support.
