The Respondent Community

A Brand New Safe Space for People Suffering the Injustices of the Family Law System.

When I first started writing my book The Respondent, I was writing it to clear my name, and more importantly, to let my children know that I was wrongly accused, and I hadn't abandoned them. 

I did not want to write my book, create my podcast, record my audiobook, or take my story public—I had to. 

When I was in the early stages of writing the book, I thought I was alone. I didn't know anyone else who was going through what I was going through.

I felt totally confused, isolated, lonely, and carried a deep sense of shame – ALL THE TIME – because I didn't know anyone else who was walking the same horrific path.

Nobody could understand this devastating feeling.

Then, as I got deeper into researching for the book, I learned that I was in fact, not alone. Sadly, there are millions of US out there globally. Whether you are an alienated parent, a child who's been separated from a parent because of their nasty divorce, or a grandparent, auntie, uncle, a family friend, who hasn't seen a child in years, there are millions of us suffering the same experience.
