Thank you, Maureen, for sharing your experience and for speaking so honestly about sexual abuse. This book offers reassurance that none of us is alone, and that there is hope for healing and support when we take the brave step of asking for help.

It gently reminds readers that there is no shame in reaching out, that what happened was not our fault, and that we do not need to keep carrying the blame. The idea of finally setting down the heavy weight so many survivors carry resonated deeply with me. This book met me where I was and offered words I didn’t yet have.

A compassionate and encouraging read that affirms healing is possible, and that support exists for those willing to seek it.
