When you find yourself in an abusive relationship, the only way for you to move on is to get out.
This happened to Ashley Bendiksen, but not after she was being choked and almost killed.
Thankfully, she got out, but she still faced being homeless and was emotionally distraught, while she figured out how to move her life forward.
This was where trusting her intuition was critically important as she eventually found success, and started to help educate others on the warning signs of an abusive relationship.
