The Cost of Staying (30 years later) featuring Rosie and Abby Vice

This week on “Is Anybody Out There?”, we’re joined by fellow Podcaster Rosie for a deeply honest conversation about the cost of staying in an abusive relationship—and the courage it can take to finally walk away. Rosie opens up about her experience of leaving after 30 years, while also sharing her journey with sobriety, narcissism, and the long-term impact of an abusive relationship. Her story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to choose yourself, reclaim your life, and begin again. Join us for an honest conversation about survival, recovery, recognizing unhealthy patterns, and finding the strength to leave—even after decades.   Rosies podcast- https://open.spotify.com/show/10zfGQwGTxiwRYfV2ET2L5?si=b64211ba3d0e4a78   Music Guest: Abby Vice Instagram: @abby_vice “Is Anybody Out There?” is a powerful and heartfelt podcast co-hosted by Patti Collins and Andrea Langefield, empowered by Women Helping Women.
