Produktbeschreibung
One out of five women and one out of fourteen men experience sexual violence, physical violence and/or stalking by an intimate partner during their lifetime. (National Coalition Against Domestic Violence) I was that statistic, and documented my own heart-wrenching journey through domestic violence and abuse. However, I now have the strength to realize that my past does not define me. It is possible to heal from sexual trauma and abuse. In this book, I am breaking the silence and restoring my freedom. As a result of suffering domestic abuse, I am determined to overcome the profound effects of trauma-and help others to do the same. I explain my own process of self-reflection which helped me move toward wholeness. You too can follow this process of transformation from survivor to thriver. You will learn how to pick up the pieces of your life and through strength and resilience, take back your life. I will guide you away from dysfunctional relationship cycles and damaged self-esteem to a life filled with confidence, power, and amazing resilience. There are four main types of intimate partner violence: sexual violence, stalking, physical violence, and psychological aggression. This book explains my personal journey through the four types so brace yourself for a difficult walk in my shoes. Women need to know that they are not alone while travelling these roads of emotional struggle. My newfound passion is helping women understand why they pick unhealthy relationships, give themselves the grace to move on, and regain their authentic, wise selves.
