You cannot think or talk your way through trauma, but you can write your way through it.
Writing is not only what i do, it's who i am
AS A CHILD, I would pour out my thoughts and feelings on paper.
I REMEMBER the first sentence I ever wrote.
UNBEKNOWNST TO ME, I would complete processing my trauma, in the same way I had begun, thirty years before.

My journey began beside a creek,
at the bottom of a mountain in
The Promised land.
It ended beneath a nightcap oak tree, at the top of a mountain in
Repentance Creek.
More than a conqueress
I FOUGHT
every battle
with a pen and paper
and
I conquered every one.
I WROTE

two hundred and eighty pages
and
I emptied
three hundred and twenty

SUMMARY
This forthcoming memoir takes readers on the
expedition of how I set myself free from PTSD. From one year in an isolated treehouse in the middle of the forest to launching a mission designed to help women around the world reconnect with the truth and beauty of who they are, this story chronicles how I learned to sit with, in and beside every thought, feeling and emotion I had been running away from. Transforming trials into triumphs, I hope this story inspires survivors to reclaim their power and rediscover how to use it because... trauma recovery is so much fun!
Trauma is not what happens to you, it is what happens inside of you as a result of something that happened to you.
