The SASSI's Guide to Overcoming Domestic Abuse and Rebuilding Your Life with Christine Malek

When faced with the darkest moments of our lives, it's the stories of those who have walked through the fire and emerged stronger that can offer us a beacon of hope. Today, we sit down with Christine Malek, known as the SASSI Coach, who embodies this fierce spirit through her own harrowing yet triumphant journey. Christine invites us into her world, recounting the abuse she endured and how it shaped her mission to empower others. Her story is one of survival and transformation, underlining the power of self-assertion and independence. She unpacks the essence of being SASSI — her trademarked acronym for Strong, Assertive, Smart, Sexy, Independent — and demonstrates how these qualities can reignite the spirit of women who have been squashed by domestic abuse and violence.

As we traverse through Christine's experiences, we encounter not only the raw struggles of her past but also the critical moments of awakening that led her to break free. She shares the life-altering decision to reclaim happiness and the steps she took to escape the endless cycle of abuse.

With vivid recollections, Christine tells us about the intoxicating charm of love bombing and the challenge of recognizing when a relationship turns abusive. Her narrative is a profound reminder that the journey to liberation is rarely easy and always worth the courage it demands. By telling her personal stories with actionable insights, Christine offers listeners a roadmap to rediscovery and healing, and she extends a hand to those looking to connect with her through her SASSI Village initiative that she plans on bringing to life.
