How Hot is Your Tea: 150+ Empowering Ideas to Heal and Grow from Emotional Abuse

Eleanor Roosevelt once said, "A woman is like a tea bag - you never know how strong she is until you put her in hot water." Emotional abuse is one of the most insidious and elusive forms of abuse in domestic relationships that cuts through all colors, genders, sexual orientations, socioeconomic classes. Emotional abuse does not leave a physical mark. When seen through an isolated incident, the abuse can seem trivial and nonsensical.
