Having lived through abuse and trauma, I know intimately the deep effects these experiences can have on one’s life. For a long time, I let these past traumas define me, leaving me feeling muted and powerless. However, becoming a mother was a pivotal moment for me. It was then that I realized I needed to reclaim my voice and take charge of my empowerment.
Reclaiming My Voice
Starting this blog was a crucial step in my journey to regain my voice. The trauma I faced made me feel silenced and incapable of expressing myself freely. I wasn’t given the chance to stand up for myself against those who should have been my protectors. My sense of isolation continued until I connected with someone who had a similar experience. Through my writing, I hope to share how reclaiming my voice has empowered me, and to offer insights that may resonate with others facing similar struggles.
Supporting Others Through Hardships
One of the driving forces behind creating this blog was my desire to assist others who have endured comparable challenges. Escaping from an abusive marriage seemed nearly impossible at times, but once I found the strength to leave, my goal became to support others in their journey towards recovery. I aimed to create a refuge where women and children could find solace from their trauma. Despite the personal toll it took, I learned that the most impactful way to help is through teaching and uplifting others, even if it means facing resistance or letting go of those who cannot be helped. This blog is a testament to the belief that, despite our struggles, there is always a path to happiness.
Advocacy and Justice
Justice plays a crucial role in healing for survivors. By sharing my story, I hope to raise awareness and push for societal changes regarding abuse and trauma. This blog serves as a platform to discuss justice, societal attitudes, and support systems. Speaking out helps challenge existing norms and fosters a more compassionate society. Through my experiences, I have learned that understanding even the smallest aspects of the law is essential, as it can prevent exploitation and ensure our voices are heard. Despite the challenges and setbacks in seeking legal redress, I found my sense of justice in being heard and advocating for myself.
Celebrating New Beginnings
While this blog addresses the hardships I’ve faced, it primarily focuses on celebrating new beginnings. Life’s journey involves ups and downs, and it’s important to recognize and celebrate each victory. Sharing my own triumphs, no matter how small, I aim to inspire others to acknowledge their achievements and find joy in their healing. Even in difficult times, there is always room for hope and celebration, and I am excited to share this evolving part of my journey with you.
Navigating Loss
In addition to celebrating new beginnings, this blog is a space for grieving the losses that many survivors encounter. I have personally experienced the heart-wrenching loss of a child and understand the profound grief that accompanies such events. By discussing these experiences openly, I hope to create a supportive space where others can share their pain, find solace, and feel understood. The unexpected waves of grief can be overwhelming, and this blog seeks to offer comfort and connection.
Addressing Childhood Trauma
Childhood trauma can have enduring effects that shape one’s adult life. Through this blog, I explore the impact of childhood trauma and share my approach to overcoming its effects. Although I am not a licensed therapist and cannot offer medical advice, I aim to provide a community where individuals can connect and support each other. We must overcome the stigma of sharing our experiences and seek help where it’s available. Understanding that trauma is never our fault is a crucial step in healing.
Embracing Single Parenthood
Having been a single mother, I understand the unique challenges and rewards of raising children on one’s own. Through this blog, I offer support and encouragement to other single parents. By sharing my journey, I hope to build a community where single mothers can find strength, support, and inspiration as they navigate the complexities of parenting alone.
In Summary
Starting this blog has been a transformative experience, allowing me to find my voice, empower myself, and assist others facing similar challenges. Through sharing my experiences, advocating for justice, celebrating milestones, mourning losses, and addressing childhood trauma, I hope to uplift and inspire fellow survivors. Together, we can move beyond our past and embrace a future of healing and empowerment.

A Winter Devotional. Winner in The Ritual of Winter Challenge.
Large, fluffy white flakes swirl slowly to the ground in a gentle, choreographed waltz. Safe and warm inside my house, wrapped in a cozy blanket on the velvet couch, I watch in silence through the huge front window as everything becomes white. The world, time itself, lessens its pace to match the cadence of the first true snowfall.

Signs of a Fake Long Distance Relationship You Keep Excusing
Long distance relationships can feel intense, emotional, and deeply personal. When they are real, they create trust, consistency, and shared growth across miles. When they are deceptive, they sap energy, time, and emotional safety. Many people realize something is wrong but try rationalizing it away. We frequently forgive behavior that would never be considered acceptable in a real-world relationship.
