Some of us are conditioned from a young age to excuse, overlook and bypass abuse - but we're not even aware that we are doing it.
This episode covers five ways we are taught to excuse abuse and how you can kick the habit. It explores how societal, religious and cultural norms, films, media, social media and families shape our ideas about relationships and love, and may normalise unhealthy and destructive behaviours.
Medusa's Mic is produced by author and advocate for healthy love, Lucretia Ackfield.
