I'm currently in a relationship
I know isn't healthy but I've been too scared to leave. Reading Laurnedria's story gave me hope that escape is actually possible. The way she describes how abuse started small and grew over time is exactly what I'm experiencing.
As someone who works in a domestic
violence shelter, I recommend this book to every woman who comes through our doors. Laurnedria's story is real, not sanitized or simplified. She talks about the fear, the poverty, the legal battles, all of it. Survivors need to know that leaving is hard and messy but still worth it.
I lost my dad when I was twelve and have
struggled with depression ever since. No one ever connected those dots for me until I read this book. Laurnedria's description of how her father's death created a void that nothing could fill made me sob. I've never felt so understood.
My daughter has been battling anorexia for two years.
I gave her this book and we read it together. Laurnedria's honesty about what was really going on in her head during her eating disorder helped my daughter open up to me for the first time. The chapter about recovery being slow and hard but possible gave us both hope.
I left an abusive marriage three years ago and thought
I was past it all. Reading this book showed me I still have healing to do. Laurnedria talks about things I haven't wanted to face, like forgiving myself for staying so long and dealing with the trauma my kids witnessed. Her faith and her mother's support reminded me of what got me through too
Reading about Laurnedria's journey to become a health
coach while raising her daughter alone inspired me to go back to school. I've been stuck in survival mode for so long after leaving my abusive ex that I forgot I could still have dreams. Her story reminded me that surviving isn't the end goal, living is. Started my first college class this semester.
