I am so honoured to have hosted this conversation with 2 very experienced workers in the domestic abuse field - Senior Constable Malcolm Baker and Peter Foster. 

I hope you develop an understanding of abuse and our responsibility to all be part of the solution.

My guests were Mary Wilson co-presenter from the Hubbub, Bev Carter from It's Time To Shine and Donna Gianniotis from Yoga and Healing. I also have an interview with Annabel Daniel from Women's Community Shelters.

The audio is well worth listening to...apologies for the speed that I start the show - I am sure the conversation has sped me up...surely I don't speak that fast...unless perhaps the rush of morning accompanied me into the studio for the opening chat of the show... a good lesson :-)

Some photos from the day...

Last show for the year and Danni McClellan a psychologist with KYDS was my guest for Stay in the Loop with Lucy today. 

We spoke about schoolies and the dangers that can face students if they do not think ahead
