In the US Alone, an estimated 1 in 4 women is victim of severe physical abuse.
This week on Defining You, I want to replay a very compelling conversation with President of LOVE Life Now Foundation and Domestic Abuse Survivor, Lovern Gordon, who lived to tell her own story and what she is doing today to encourage other women and help them realize that they are not alone.
So if you’re new, or you might have missed this powerful episode give it a listen. If you or someone you know is affected by domestic violence, Lovern will empower you to find your voice and reclaim your power!
Lovern is a domestic violence awareness author of the international memoir called, The Legacy He Left Me. She has appeared on numerous radio and television shows including CBS This Morning, NBC’s This is New England and Trinidad’s TV6 News.
The Boston Celtics recently named her one of their ‘Heroes Among Us.’
Listen as she recounts her powerful, heartbreaking, but inspirational story and shares advice and information about resources available to empower women to break the silence, find their voice and live their best lives, despite their experience.
Before we dive in, please note that this episode contains depictions of violence that some people may find disturbing. Please proceed at your own discretion.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
