Rachel Williams | The Devil At Home

[@rodders6969]

I know Rachel very well and everything she has said on this podcast is spot on. I’ve known Rach since she was around 16, she was life and soul. I remember her phoning me from her hospital bed in Swansea to tell me about Jack. The woman went through so much. And still went through so much afterwards also. She went through so much I actually nicknamed her Rambo. Born survivor fair play. Luvs ya Rach. Keep up the good work hun.

[@Liamgane2]

You dont know her stop lying

[@kathleenmcerlean6409]

I’ve never listened to this podcast before I came across it on TikTok and have just sat and watched every minute, my heart breaks for this woman I’m so happy she has met someone because she needs a life now . I could of listened to her for a lot longer. I hope her and new husband and josh have a fab life what a inspiration Rachel is 🩷

[@thecentralclub]

Thank you Kathleen. We have so many powerful stories! All hidden gems to get lost in x

[@magneticranners]

Welcome to 'Central Club' club!

[@tam5762]

Here from tik tok too! What an amazing woman. 👏

[@Lucinda5ara]

Never watched but this hit me hard and in such a positive way. I ended up looking up the book on audible and very sad to see I couldn’t find it. Hope one day I can be as amazing as rach xx

[@boredasfuck8369]

Some top stories told on here

[@Chris.Hughes17]

Unbelievable woman. The trauma she has gone through and can sit and tell her story like that. Thanks to the central club brilliant podcast again

[@peaches79]

What an incredible woman, very powerful message from Rachel. Thank you for helping to share her experiences and vision. Wishing her every happiness and success ❤

[@MrJamessmith90]

This podcast gets better and better. So good at what he does. Asks the right questions and lets guests talk.

[@iloughrey]

I initially came across this on Tik Tok and just had to find the whole podcast. How inspirational is Rachel. I work with victim/survivors of domestic abuse and this story very sadly resonates, but getting to hear from a survivor is so powerful. Everything Rachel said about how to change this scurge in society is correct. All the agencies need to make changes, the Government, the Judiciary, the Police, from top to bottom need to make this a priority. The cost to Society is greater than the money needed to be spent. I pray Rachel your story reaches far and wide. God bless you 🙏

[@LlibertarianGalt]

Just saw in Wales Online a guy with several convictions for domestic violence get arrested again for assaulting his ex, again, and only got a few months in prison.

[@alteredmind9517]

​@@LlibertarianGalt Yeah they usually do only get a slap on the wrist. It's terrible

[@DonnaMaay]

Just heartbreaking the hell and torment you’ve been through Rachel. I’m so sorry this happened. Such a strong woman to be able to hold it together and tell your story

[@davelewis6256]

Just bought the book on the back of this podcast. Brutal story told with such determination. Domestic violence warnings should be on tv adverts funded by the government. There should also be an alternative number than 999 for domestic violence emergencies. Thanks

[@vixlogic7954]

This stopped me in my tracks, showing such similarities in my life! Rachel's positivity has made my day as the grief can be sometimes overwhelming. I feel less alone. Thank you so much x

[@CalmWithTheWorldAtLast]

What a strong women! As a survivor of DV, I truly believe that the Freedom Project courses should be taught in an age appropriate manner from primary school right up to universities and beyond c

[@karrenfeatherstone518]

I've been to this place..it's called he'll.. the ironic thing ...my partner was called Darren and I had two children...keep using your platform to help me and other women..your lovely..❤

[@bettyboo5906]

Rachel you are a force of nature! I was not expecting to hear that part of your story of what happened to your Son..made me start crying, im so sorry..as a mother with a Son aswell, who's father was also violent towards me, i met him when i was 20, just b4 i turned 30 i had to get out of the abusive relationship, i didn't want my Son, (who was 6 at the time) growing up in that environment. My 30th b/day felt like a weight had been lifted, a new chapter of my life. You are one brave, strong woman, such a down to earth lovely lady..a Survivor! I used to think i was weak, & why did i put up with it for 10yrs, i was young, loved him, & thought we could be a family, all while working & what he put me through. I also put on an act to outsiders/work colleagues..they would never of known what was going in behind closes doors, like you said it takes alot of strength mentally to put on an act. I know now that i wasn't weak. Im stronger than i think..i am also a Survivor. Thank you so much for sharing your story. ❤

[@Derekduval963]

Absolutely compelling this. Having been brought up in this type of environment I can completely empathise with this incredible lady.

[@nathanmiller5209]

14 minutes in and loving this and was compelled to watch it all, Powerful Powerful stuff, Well done Rachel and thanks Cullen and Central club for choosing Rachel. As a child I lived through this, 60 now, not as a dramatic outcome as yours but the damage is done. Im a local lad who knew the people you knew and and you the same, thanks for sharing your story, enjoy your life now love you make me feel proud for overcoming your adversities.🥰

[@desertflower1244]

Truly formidable woman! She is amazing.

[@callum_1927]

One of the best episodes so far this is, amazing story !!!

[@hatchetkeeper1939]

That interview absolutely flew by. Great video, hope it gets the attention it deserves. All the best to Rachel and her loved ones.

[@zeezy8222]

Wow, Rachel is incredible. Cycles of abuse does need a light shon on it and to totally break those cycles. Education is key and the whole system needs a reboot. ❤

[@dragonreseller7464]

I’ll be honest I look out for the Hooligan Podcasts, some of the Rugby Legends ones. I didn’t think I’d listen to all this one - but I did from start to finish what compelling viewing. Such a strong woman with an experience/message that I’d imagine will help a lot of people. Great work 👍🏻

[@TheRoarWithin]

I’ve read Rachel’s book. It was very gripping and she is a wonderful advocate against domestic abuse.

[@jaimieefahy8030]

Come across this on tik tok , just watched it so so sad what a brave woman she is can’t even begin to comprehend what she’s been through ❤

[@izziekathryn]

Cane across a clip of the podcast on TikTok and had to come check out the whole thing. What an incredible woman Rachel is. My heart breaks for her for everything she went through but its lovely to hear she's got a new husband and is moving forward. Incredibly brave of her to speak out on her story. Also, you did a such a great job of interviewing her. Ive seen so many podcasts where the host claims to have read the book/watched the videos etc and yet its clear they havent. You very clearly had done the research, read the book and you sat there and let her talk without interruption.

[@oliviakavanagh146]

What an incredibly strong woman❤️this brought me to tears. Thankyou for sharing🙏🏻

[@therealmikeysee]

Good grief Charlie Brown. Tears are running like water. God, what a woman. I've been kidnapped & held for days, attempted murder on, beaten many times over, and more decades ago and was childless at the time. I cannot imagine having a child with that man, him actually following through with the threat of taking his life, and then our teenage son doing the same. Rachel, you have supernatural strength now. You have it every single day. Even through my tears, thank you so much for sharing your and Jacks stories. 🗣️🎙️🥇

[@kourtneyamos7996]

Wow wow wow, I can’t get my head around this sad, twisted case of domestic abuse! God bless this women and her family 🙏🏻💓

[@TheRoarWithin]

I think what made Darren so dangerous was his wreckless and immediate rage, pure psychopathy (I.E. inflicting pain on animals), and complete disregard for the law and consequences. Not many people would walk into a salon during the day with a shotgun.

[@LlibertarianGalt]

Dude looks like Master-Blaster without the master.

[@jaynelouise1969]

I take it, from your response, your claiming you knew him personally,

[@jamiewilson5679]

Yet another powerful story.Keep this level and you will end up with your own chat show.Very strong lady.The central club is the top podcast show now.

[@amcpersonaltraining4862]

Another great podcast cul. Great to see domestic violence being covered. Absolutely brutal with that happening with her son. Seeing rachael talking about this so openly and helping others is really inspirational.

[@christinedoherty7310]

[@rachelcampbell4719]

Just came cross this channel wow loving it half way threw this story I'm gripped ❤

[@berto2k6r]

Wow. I'm from Newport and remember hearing when it all kicked off at the hairdressers and thinking WTF... But I feel like I didnt hear much about it afterwards, so to hear all this from this amazing strong ladies mouth of what she had to endure until that moment.. Such a horrendous and heart-breaking story, and for her to remain and be so positive.. amazing. Well done Cullan, again, amazing. Hats off to you.

[@thecentralclub]

No problem! That’s why we’re here! Stay Central

[@Jennifer-bm7uw]

Thankyou for sharing your story and for the work you do 💜

[@lizaward2979]

The impact of Domestic abuse on our children is severe - as soon as cycles and exposure to the violence incorporates them, you must leave! Heartbreaking and as Rachel clearly explains, sooo avoidable 💔

[@thecentralclub]

Thank you so much Rachel ❤

[@kellyalexander1390]

What a woman Rachel is! She comes across amazing and a movie should be made . What’s so sad is being that desperate and knowing no one can help her , police know one! So pleased she has now got peace and happiness. I’d like to see her story on another podcast as don’t think the guy interviewing her did a great job and didnt ask her in-depth questions etc. I do believe her running at him holding the gun was her fight for life was so strong and her love for her boys so great she would have fought the devil which he was and won! Good luck to her and her boy as you deserve all the happiness in the world! To all of us who have been in an abusive relationship and to those still going through it you can get out and come through the other side! ❤

[@lucycrowhurst724]

Just brought the book what an incredibly strong woman!! Good on you for telling your story maybe a lot of ladies and men can be saved from you telling your story! ❤

[@bubblekaz1989]

Being abused she’s right. There’s nothing to compare, there’s nothing to see through the cloud! It doesn’t have to be physical either. This poor woman, I came close to loosing my child so I can’t imagine what she’s gone & continue to goes through ❤

[@LlibertarianGalt]

Women benefit from close family and friendships! Abusers isolate but more often than not they seek the isolated.

What a podcast to a boring Sunday such an amazing lady and a brilliant host ❤

[@davidburrows1287]

Wow , what a story and what an inspirational woman.

[@donnajohnson8035]

I resonate with this story so so much. I lost my son (he’s gone no contact with me and his sister) through something very similar. It’s horrendous and I miss him every single day. I still send him Christmas and birthday cards and message him, but get nothing back! The ordeal this lady has gone through is beyond words. She must be absolutely heartbroken. However, I don’t agree with what she said about women not being as violent!!

[@leannewilliams1660]

What a terribly sad story. Sorry for your loss. I do hope Josh is okay

Terribly sad story. Those poor boys had a horrible life. The adults were in a position to make choices but those children had no choice but to endure an endless succession of traumas. Rip Jack.

[@angelrocco2024]

Sadly my 16 year old son met a woman a couple of years older....and she was mentally unstable and a narcassist... And basically when he came home someone totally different came back....with depression and anxiety but i have sat him down and talked openly about what happened and said you have to be careful in future not to get sucked in by someone else like that😖😖😖

[@angelrocco2024]

She also locked herself in a bathroom and self harmed herself as well and basically my don was never the same afterwards😩

[@oddy532]

Class again lad, i always think this one isnt for me, give it 10 mins and it is qaulity. This lady is obviously a really strong person, and tells the story with a certain qaulity. Even though it is a harrowing story it isnt a downbeat way of telling it, maybe it is just her character coming through. Great listen both of yas

[@LouiseGardener]

People who had non-violent, healthy upbringings can become violent and abusive too. My ex had a loving family but for whatever reason he became volume towards me after I had our son.

[@joannebear7351]

My abuser was same size ‘ a giant of a man I was 7 stone and 5/4 after months of terrible terrible abuse’ mentality I had to go in a unit’ he still got to me there and I very last time he beat me I had to protect my face and kicked him and my heel went in his eye ‘ omg he never hit me again’ and I got away ‘ he got 20 stitches in his eye’

Horrific story of bad decisions and a very bad man… but I think it’s healthy to see a loved one who has passed but probably not if his dad looked a mess 😢

[@neilwakeford]

I’ve commented a few times with full support of your podcast. I beg you Cullen, to talk to the partner’s family to give the full story. I lost my my 26 year old daughter 4 years ago and can’t even express how shattered and lost I am. There is something inherently wrong with her reaction to the loss of her child, in my opinion. Out there, is family that lost their son and grandchild and what is the common denominator? As always, a great podcast, but you need to dig deeper. Take care

[@thecentralclub]

I defo agree there should be two sides to a story. I agree but think about it,but having the families side, they don’t know the truth of what happened in the life relationship. It will be bias and I feel like I don’t want to get this into a slanging match.

[@neilwakeford]

@@thecentralclub fair enough, I think you are right. There will be no place you could find common ground between them. However if you do get a response from the family I do think you should engage with them privately maybe? Take care and keep up the great work.
