Meeta Gandhi - Breaking The Cycle

We tell ourselves it doesn't happen here. Not in our neighbourhood. Not behind those doors. Not to someone like her.But domestic abuse doesn't announce itself. And for our guest, it wasn't just her own story, it was a pattern that had quietly shaped the generations before her.Until she chose to make it stop.Finding herself in a domestic abuse situation with children to protect, she had to rebuild physically, emotionally, and financially, not just for herself, but for them.In the hardest season of her life, she found Yellow Brick House. A place where she felt safe, where she felt seen, with three simple words “I believe you”. The community offered a quiet, steady reminder that she was not alone, and that support changed everything.This is a conversation about survival, courage, and the extraordinary strength it takes to break a cycle. And about what becomes possible when you refuse to let the past write the future.#pivotalmoment #domesticabuse #survivorSend us Fan MailLesley Hawkins is a keynote speaker with her signature keynote "The Courage To Define and Own Your Worth", workshop developer (The Leadership Mirror and The Leaders Table), leadership strategist, and storyteller who believes growth happens in the everyday moments that define who we become. Drawing on years of experience leading, guiding, and mentoring teams, Lesley brings authenticity, curiosity, and heart to the conversation as each interaction is an opportunity to define what truly matters.One question.
