This book was recommended by Exchange Press, a resource I trust. However, the book disappointed me. The self-help embedded in the author's story of her personal journey toward emotional healing wasn't what I was expecting.

I had a hard time following at first, but eventually found the groove.

This is the second time I started reading this book. This one was tough for me as she talked about her child abuse as it hit close to home.
She is an amazing woman and her story can help others traumatized know that there is hope, help and healing after that kind of pain and trauma.
My journey to healing and my PSTD were very different and I think in many ways its a journey we never really complete.
