Bitch Is A Bad Word is a real, raw, and unapologetic domestic violence podcast that digs deep into healing, reclaiming power, and rewriting the rules after toxic relationships, domestic violence, domestic abuse, narcissistic abuse, coercive control, and financial abuse. Hosted by Lindsay, a mom of four with zero fancy letters behind her name, this show is a no-BS conversation about breaking free and finding your voice.
Each week, we bring in experts, survivors, and the real-life stories that break open the shame and stigma—because 1 in 3 women in the U.S. experience domestic violence, and these stories matter.
If you’re navigating your own journey, standing in solidarity with others, curious about how to help someone, or unsure if you’re in an abusive relationship, this is the show you need. This domestic abuse podcast is your space to heal, learn, and rise together.
Don’t miss our weekly Bitch Sesh, where we spill the tea, share survivor stories, and talk about the messy, beautiful process of taking our lives back—one story at a time.
Join the conversation. Share your story. Let’s break the cycle together.
Because bitch is a bad word when it’s used to tear you down — but if you’re in the Bestie Gang, being a bitch means you’re a baddie. We've got your back, Besties!

Leaving your abusive marriage or relationship may be the hardest step but picking the right lawyer may be the most important. You don't need someone who just knows the law but also understands what you've been through and the manipulative tactics your abuser will employ with the judge and with you. You need someone who knows your court, your judge and how "to read the room" to help you get what you are fighting for.
Padideh Jafari is a trauma informed Family Law and Divorce Lawyer in Southern California who specializes working with victims of domestic abuse, domestic violence, narcissistic abuse, verbal abuse and coercive control. She lays out for you what you need to look for in an attorney and why choosing not just a good lawyer but an attorney who understands the mentality of your abuser and your judge is so important.
Together they cover:
- How to tell if a lawyer understands domestic violence and coercive control
- Red flags to avoid when meeting with lawyers
- How abusers weaponize the legal system against you (and what to do about it)
- The truth about litigation abuse, custody court, and financial manipulation
This episode is your legal survival guide—whether you’re newly separated or stuck in a court battle that just won’t end.
