Mickie Zada is a content creator, catalyst, advocate and coach. Her mission is to support, inspire, and encourage women over 50 who have left domestic abuse.

In this interview, Kim asks Mickie:

• You were 53 when you realized she had to get out of domestic abuse. How did you decide to leave?
• Is it likely that an abuser will change?
• How does a woman know if she’s living in abuse?
• What are some different types of abuse to watch out for in a relationship?
• What should one look for when dating? Are there any signs to watch out for?
