Summary

We spend a majority of our lives as survivors with no clue what we are actually surviving.

To protect us, our brains have frozen in time the incidents fueling our ability to be in denial. Unfortunately, the truth of our sexual abuse seeps out into all areas of our lives, causing us to behave like maligned versions of our true selves. We yell, when we are not yellers. We cheat, when we want love. We drink and abuse drugs when we want to see God. Only through facing the denial do we find our true selves hidden in the cobwebs.

Author Kim O’Hara takes the reader through her eleven years of recovery and offers tools and tips to make different choices in living while looking at generational abuse, spirituality, inner child, taking back one’s body, financial independence and romance.

By the end of 21 chapters, the reader experiences a transformation in how they approach living as a survivor.
