MEET THE FOUNDER
Meet the founder, Jessica Bennett, who made the brave decision to Choose Herself. Her journey from survivor to advocate to founder of Choose Yourself is an inspiring example of the power of resilience and self-empowerment.
Jessica is committed to creating a community where she can empower others to break free from the cycle of abuse and rebuild their lives with dignity and strength.
WHY WE EXIST
Domestic violence doesn’t discriminate. With 1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men experiencing domestic violence in their lifetimes, we are all connected to at least 1 person affected by domestic violence.
Choose Yourself exists to break the silence and stigma around abuse, providing education, resources, and a supportive community. We aim to empower survivors to heal, grow, and regain control of their lives. We encourage survivors to choose themselves.
A GUIDE TO THRIVE

Written the year after leaving a seventeen-year romantic partnership that almost destroyed her, Jessica Bennett’s inspiring story about hope and healing will help you find the courage and strength to choose yourself so you can start thriving for yourself and the world.
