I’ve spent the past year pouring pieces of myself into pages—writing a book I never imagined I’d have the strength to write, but one I knew the world needed.
Personal Injury: The Economic Impact of Abusive Relationships
Officially launching September 2025.
This work is more than a book—it’s a reckoning. A reflection. A call to awareness and action.
Over the summer, I’ll be traveling for a major professional opportunity—something I’m incredibly honored to be part of (and I promise to share more soon!). But when I return in the fall, we launch. And I want you to be part of that moment.
While the full release happens in September, select early copies may be available at upcoming in-person events, so stay tuned my social media pages and on gallienlaw.com and corriegallien.com for updates on how you can get your hands on one.
🎥 Watch the Full Unboxing
This moment was surreal. After months of writing, editing, and holding space for stories that were once silenced, I held the first copy of Personal Injury: The Economic Impact of Abusive Relationships in my hands.
I filmed this unboxing to share that feeling with you—because this book isn’t just mine. It’s for every woman who’s been made to feel small, unseen, or unheard.
Here’s to reclaiming our voices—one page at a time.

Why I Wrote This Book
Domestic abuse is one of the most uncomfortable topics we face—not just as a society, but as individuals. It often happens at the hands of someone we care about. Someone who may even claim to care about us.
It’s hard to talk about, and even harder to name when the world doesn’t see bruises or broken bones.
That’s why I wrote this book.
I took great care not to center the abuser in this narrative. Instead, I centered myself—the survivor. I explored the impactof abuse: the economic ripple effects, the legal aftermath, and the emotional toll that lingers long after you’ve physically left. I wrote from my truth, because truth-telling is how we disrupt silence.
This Work Is Deeply Needed
Abuse isn’t just physical. It can be psychological, financial, emotional. It can wear a person down to nothing—and still go unseen.
This book is for the women still calculating how to leave. It’s for the ones rebuilding quietly. It’s for the friends and advocates trying to understand. And it’s in honor of the women who didn’t make it out.
Because the truth is, abuse is insidious. It doesn’t always stop until it takes a life.
Let’s do the work of rooting it out—together.
What’s Next: Workshop + Free Resources
In addition to the book, I’m also launching a signature trauma-informed workshop this fall—designed for survivors, advocates, and entrepreneurs ready to reclaim their power and walk in purpose. This will be a space of learning, unlearning, reflection, and strategy.
And before we even get there, I’ve got a few free tools and resources coming your way. Think of them as small steps to get ready, reflect, and reconnect—with yourself and your voice.
