Hi, I’m Jas Rawlinson,

I empower executive teams & their employees to detect the red flags of domestic violence, so they can set strong boundaries that keep them safe, healthy, and thriving.

Why I do what I do

As an 8yo girl, my life looked perfect to the outside world. But inside the 4 walls of our home, things were very different.

For 10 years I suffered extreme emotional abuse and coercive control, and almost didn’t survive. Thankfully, I’m alive to share my story — and most importantly, to put an end to coercive control and domestic violence.

Because everyone deserves to live free from violence and fear.

Whether I’m empowering workplaces to detect the red flags of emotional abuse…

Speaking to high school students…Or coaching changemaker women to become global advocates…

There’s one thing I know for sure.

Storytelling is the key to transforming shame into strength, and pain into purpose.

What People Are Saying

“Powerful, inspiring, courageous.

“With a potent mix of personal experience, narrative and research, Jas delivered a session that educated and empowered our team on various aspects of domestic violence, enhancing their understanding of its profound impact.”

“I couldn’t put this book down."

Through her life experiences, I learned more about the intersections of sexual exploitation and abuse with so many other issues…and I work on these issues full time! ‘The Stories We Carry’ is a great book for those interested in understanding women’s issues better.

— Dawn Hawkins, CEO of National Centre on Sexual Exploitation

“Our students were very engaged.

Domestic violence is a daunting but essential topic to discuss with young people. Jas was very professional and struck just the right balance between presenting on confronting topics but with a sensitive and measured delivery. Highly current, helpful and informative.”

— Indooroopilly State High (QLD)
