Do you know your Breaking Point?
Have you ever heard of the phrase "Second opinion" in regards to medical advice? It occurred often when a professional medical advisor stated something unbelievable or unwanted. That may seem odd to you, but what is even more surprising, is that many have sought a "second opinion" in such matters, and found what they were looking for.

This is what healing feels like once the chaos stops. It’s not fireworks or victory parades. It’s the quiet after a battle — a silence that hums in your bones, leaving you unsure whether to rest or run. After leaving an abuser, you begin to understand how much energy survival really took.
