Discover: Tips on breaking free from "good girl" conditioning How to trust your intuition, spot warning signs and develop awareness Advice on staying calm in high-stress situations How to use body language to ward off unwelcome approaches Tools to improve confidence and assertiveness How to use your speech and emotional intelligence for de-escalation 10 last-resort physical strategies for common attack scenarios How to heal from violence-related trauma Joanna's personal stories, alongside the voices of other women with all-too familiar experiences, strengthen this empowering call for women to nurture their inner warrior spirit and fight back.
