Another Phenomenal Caribbean Woman - Lyn Warrington

I met Lyn a couple of years ago in Dominica when I spent time on
the Island. 


On my trip late last year, we hired a vehicle from her
company.  As we waited for the vehicle to be prepared we
chatted in her office about life and somehow we got talking about
her experiences of domestic violence.  I invited her to
appear on this podcast and she did not hesitate to agree and
stated that she would love other women to learn from her
experiences.  When I returned to the UK we sought to set up
the interview, this interview became more urgent as tragically
two women were killed in Dominica due to DV.


In this interview, Lyn shares a little of what she went through
at the hands of her ex-husband, who began with verbal abuse which
turned physical.  Hers is a story of inner strength driven
by her spirituality and strong family connection. 


She shares some of the challenges faced by women in Dominica who
seek to escape DV and advice for those who find themselves in
this situation.  and also


Lyn says she is sustained by; her faith, her children and her
birth family. 


My sincere thanks to Lyn for her honesty and bravery.
