Darkness to Light: One Woman’s Story of Defeating Abuse and Living Life with Zest Again

Jane Fredrickson, single mom looking for a new relationship, thought she found her prince charming on an online dating site. In time he turned into Prince Harming and it took friends and family and a final wake up call for Jane to see things for what they were and remove herself from a potentially deadly situation. In this interview, Jane shares how she met her prince, what drew her to him, and how their relationship transitioned from romance to control, disrespect, threats and more. How she minimized his behavior and justified it and what made her see things for what they were.
Jane, not her real name, wrote her book about this experience to help other women get out of abusive relationships for good and turn things around. She’s an author and speaker and happy to share her story to help other women find healthy relationships and a life of happiness, peace and enthusiasm for the future.

ABOUT STEPH ROBERTS

Steph had the good fortune to start the earliest parts of her life in a communal Christian environment. Growing up this way as a child of a single mother to three children she saw first hand the struggle of adults navigating power dynamics within the church and within smaller church groups. She noticed that adults had a tough time seeing the manipulation and duplicity that was so clear to her. In spite of or because of this she found herself on a path that connected her to a series of power struggles with narcissists at work and in romantic and family relationships.

That feeling of "having magnets in your pockets" for these kinds of people.

She was stuck and wanted to break free of her situation and the patterns. But when she finally did she saw that many women were experiencing the very same thing. She was not weird or weak; she was like hundreds of thousands of others who were hiding the truth from their friends and family and taking on the burden of the dysfunction in these relationships.
