For far too long women have been told to get in line, follow the rules, be good girls, lower our voices and play small. So we twist ourselves into pretzels abandoning our true selves for the acceptance of others.
No more.
We are here to rise up, speak our truth and share our hearts.
This is my story…
It is a journey towards what’s underneath the facade I presented to the world for so long – the unspoken pain so many of us carry and run from for most of our lives. It’s about the trauma in my body and what it looks like to finally face it and heal it. My very own unraveling, which happened after I chased all the things the world told me would make me happy. The emptiness and disappointment of “having made it” shattered my heart. And the crisis, the burn out, the exhaustion, the shock of it all led me to a sacred doorway – the path within – breaking open, breaking through and eventually breaking free. In my search for answers, I found myself.
If you are longing for a life filled with meaning, purpose, peace, intimacy, trust and love it all starts with reconnecting to your soul. This is coming home. May this book guide you along your way there.
