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.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
