Growing up in a toxic household.  I witnessed and endured interpersonal trauma that included aggression/passive aggression, codependency and abuse.  The day that I learned my parents were human and were unprepared to deal with their relationship problems.  Is the day my dad left our home.  It was the best and worst day of my life as a young child.  I was too young to realize how important a second parent/partner is not just to his wife, but their children and the household.  At the same time, I was happy that the fighting and abuse stopped.  I started trying to find the love from the world to replace an absent father and mother who did not have the capacity to show love and affection to her children. 

​

What I found was something that I was not prepared for.   The sadness of not finding the other piece of my heart.  Then experiencing violence and sexual assault turned me into a victim.   I turned feeling helpless into rage!   I was the poster child slogan for the caption, “hurt people, hurt people!”  I was severely depressed, suffered from major anxiety while sabotaging relationships and blamed it on the other person- every time.  Now?  I made a choice to transform my life and master the strategies of my internal locus of control!  I have a great relationship with myself, my children and amazing husband! 

Now, I teach the very valuable information that I learned to change m life!  I believe everyone deserves to intentionally create and have the relationship of a lifetime internally and externally.
