L.Y. Marlow shares her life story about intimate partner abuse through 5 generations of her family and how it took a life-threatening moment to make her vow to "save promise," which became the name of her organization focused on preventing the cycle of abuse. Prevention is key , she says and her latest book, Don't Look at the Monster, examines how the monsters within us keep us from changing ourselves to look at our lives in terms of "a gift, a lesson or a blessing."
