Bisola-Mariam's Tech-Driven Mission to Save Survivors of Domestic Violence



Bisola-Mariam is a dedicated advocate for domestic violence survivors, leveraging her personal experiences to drive positive change. As a survivor herself, she has firsthand knowledge of the systemic retraumatization faced by many survivors within the family court system.


Driven by her passion for empowering others, Bisola-Mariam founded ideyforyou, a social tech company pioneering innovative solutions for domestic violence survivors. Her current project involves developing a software application tailored to their unique needs.


What is your personal story?


As a domestic violence survivor who continues to navigate the systemic re-traumatization inflicted by the family court system, my personal story is one of resilience and determination.


Growing up, I witnessed family violence and experienced childhood trauma firsthand. These experiences have fueled my career, which is dedicated to reducing the systemic retraumatization endured by survivors.

What sets my story apart is my ability to leverage my unimaginable experiences of trauma to build the framework for ideyforyou, the first social tech company specifically designed for domestic violence survivors.

Currently, we are developing a software application tailored to the unique needs of domestic violence survivors.


What key moments in your life led you to where you are today?


  1. Separation from an abuser: This traumatic event not only impacted my personal well-being but also significantly limited my access to my children. The struggle to maintain a safe and stable environment for myself and my children became a driving force in my journey.
  2. Founding ideyforyou: The creation of this social tech company for domestic violence survivors marked a pivotal moment in my journey, allowing me to channel my experiences into a solution-oriented endeavor. Recognizing the urgent need for innovative tools to support survivors, I embarked on this mission to empower others and create a safer, more supportive environment.


Where does your passion to serve come from?


My unwavering passion to serve stems from my personal experiences as a domestic violence survivor and my long-term exposure to childhood trauma. These hardships have fueled my desire to create a positive impact and empower others who may be facing similar challenges. Witnessing the struggles of survivors and the limitations of existing resources has ignited a deep-rooted commitment to making a difference.


How can GlobalMindED help you reach your goals?


I seek to connect with individuals, families, and organizations interested in our innovative social tech company and its app for domestic violence survivors. GlobalMindED's network and resources can help amplify our message, foster collaborations, and provide valuable insights to further develop our technology and support survivors. By leveraging GlobalMindED's platform, we can reach a wider audience, build strategic partnerships, and ultimately make a more significant impact on the lives of domestic violence survivors.
