What's this episode about?
From Police Officer to published author, Rie has followed her passion of writing a book with a powerful message.
Her book is called "Be Kind. No Excuses" and is a guide for teenagers and parents to raise awareness of the red-flag behaviours that are a precursor to abuse in intimate relationships.
Rie Pearson is from North Tyneside. She lives overlooking the sea and describes herself as Being on the Edge! She is married to David, her third husband, and has three children, two in their twenties and a teenager.
Rie's career background is in policing. She was a police officer for 27 years and retired on her 50th birthday due to ill health. She specialised in Domestic Violence and Safeguarding, working strategically for many years.
She speaks openly about her passion and strong mission for helping teenagers avoid abusive relationships and for more support and awareness on women being stalked within their communities.
