Episode description
CW: stalking, sexual assault, intimate partner violence
Today on the podcast, Liv and Kate are joined by activist, educator and author, Julie S. Lalonde. Julie's memoir, Resilience is Futile: The Life and Death and Life of Julie S. Lalonde details how, after leaving an abusive partner at age 20, he stalked her for 10 years. Julie talks to Liv and Kate about the story of this abusive relationship, the terror of being stalked, and how, defying statistics, Julie has survived the experience. The interview also dives into the problem of stalking in Canada more broadly, and how glorifying the resilience of survivors may actually be doing all of us a disservice.
