Episode 8 : Short & Long Term Effects of Domestic Abuse on Children with Naomi Adedoyin

The Restored Hope Podcast

When people talk about or think of domestic abuse and family violence, it's often about how much it hurts the adult victim. But what they may not realize is that children also experience domestic violence/abuse when they witness or are exposed to it. This may affect their physical, emotional, social, and mental wellbeing. It can affect their developmental growth and the choices they make in life.
My guest speaker on this episode is Naomi Adedoyin. Naomi is a survivor of domestic abuse, she witnessed and also experienced domestic abuse as a child. She shared the impact of domestic violence/abuse growing up, the choices she made as an adult, and also in her relationships.
We discussed how to support and help children recover after witnessing domestic violence/abuse.
She is a single mom with three amazing kids. She is passionate about transforming lives and empowering women. She is also deeply concerned about women and redefining society's perception of women and the gender-based obstacles that diverse women experience.
Through programs in her foundation (Enough Woman Foundation), she empowers abused and vulnerable women to rewrite their stories and live meaningful lives.
