Discover the Healing Journey
Life has a way of guiding us towards pivotal moments that redefine our purpose and reshape our paths. For me, that transformative journey began with a milestone - my 50th birthday. As I blew out the candles, I made a silent promise to myself - an unwavering commitment to invest in my own healing and growth.
The turning point arrived in the form of a 12-month Creative Mastermind, a challenge I was certain I'd abandon like so many others before. But this time, something was different. I delved deep into the recesses of my being, unearthing a vision and dream I had kept locked away.
My mission was clear - to nurture the embers of creativity in women who, like me, had endured the agony of physical, mental, or sexual abuse. I drew strength from my own harrowing experiences, a survivor who understood how the 'system' could falter, how hope could waver.
Yet, in my own reflection, I saw a shattered self, a portrait of damage, and a void where self-esteem should be. The prospect of looking in a mirror and saying "I love me" was an insurmountable mountain. A creative retreat dared me to face myself, to confront the abyss of self-loathing. And so, I stood before that mirror, trembling. The words caught in my throat, a testament to wounds that ran deep.
In that moment, something shifted. A dam of emotions burst forth, cascading onto the journey home. Physical and emotional release intertwined, and memories long suppressed surged to the surface. The horrors of sexual, physical, and mental abuse, memories that had hidden in the shadows, clawed their way into the light.
No one should bear such trauma. No one should endure what I have. The weight of my journey only strengthened my resolve, igniting a blasing determination to help others trapped in the same darkness.
I understand intimately the self-loathing that festers for crimes never committed by the victim.
