Listening Beyond the Silence: How Connection Can Help Us Recognize Domestic Violence

• Why domestic violence can be difficult to recognize—even when it is happening to someone we know
• How connection and paying attention can help us notice when someone may need support
• Why education and awareness are important tools for domestic violence prevention
• How we can show up for the women in our lives without judgment or assumptions
• Why domestic violence can affect women across every profession, community, and socioeconomic background

Georeen Tanner is a New York-based producer with experience across television, podcasts, digital, and streaming content. As a producer of true crime documentaries, she has spent years examining stories of violence and the people impacted by it.

Her work has led her to think deeply about the intersection between storytelling, prevention, awareness, and the ways we can better recognize when someone may need help.

Georeen brings an important message to this conversation: showing up matters.

👉 “Domestic violence doesn’t have a face.”

👉 “Education is key.”

👉 “We need to pay attention to the women around us.”

👉 “90% of life is showing up. Let’s show up for women.”
