I was so busy keeping him happy that I didn’t notice how long it had been since I’d seen my friends. I seemed to apologize for everything. I was constantly tense, holding my breath, trying to predict his mood. Slowly my world became smaller, darker, and lonelier.

Coercive Control is an insidious fog. The first "red flags" are so small you don’t notice them: a simple remark about how to do something "the right way", or a suggestion about how you should dress. He cares about where you are and who you are with.

We all want the perfect relationship, but for the courageous authors in Coerced to Courageous, their soulmate was more like checkmate.

The first "red flags" of coercive control are so subtle you barely notice them. Eventually, he has driven away your friends and family, is making all the decisions and controlling the finances, and you are trapped. These brave, resilient, brilliant women share the tools that helped them escape and rebuild their lives. They want to encourage and empower you to break the chains of coercive control and create the life you deserve.

We applaud each of our authors for sharing their raw, vulnerable, and courageous stories. Our hope is that these books will provide you with the tools to take back your power so you can rebuild your life the way you choose. Each step forward is a courageous move toward your new life filled with peace, happiness, and achievement.
