A powerful memoir that can change your life!

I love how this is not only a self- help audiobook but also a memoir that tells a personal journey. It's a truly unique guide to looking into why some women keep attracting the wrong type of man. It forced me to look back into my past experiences and realise the things I need to do to not keep making the same mistakes. I really admire the author's honestly and transparency as it can't always be easy to express so much of yourself on paper or out loud for the world to hear.

After listening to her story and guidance, I feel so much more self confident going forward in my relationships. I know the warning signs and dating patterns and I have a new way of seeing red flags when it comes to a toxic relationship. I am in a happy marriage myself but I have friends who can benefit so much from this audiobook and I would strongly recommend it to any woman who feels like they are trapped or being verbally or physically abused by a man or even another women. This is a truly honest memoir that could help so many rediscover themselves.

An Extraordinary Journey We Can All Learn From

This book is well written, captivating, and intense. I admire the courage of this woman who lived through so much and has the desire to relive it by talking about it in this book. It feels as she wants to help others. I believe she is helping others with her book because when women or men are going through or have gone through abuse such as this woman, it seems as if we are trapped, cannot talk about it, and will never have a life free of the abuse because we don't know how to escape it. I am very grateful to have listened to her story as it brought a lot of clarity to my own life.

Be proud of what you have overcome.

Being abused by society is one of the scars which are left on women's souls. A women becomes traumatized when she suffers from some horrible events in her life. In that phase of her life she needed a bandage so that it stopped bleeding. 


The writer in this book gave her hand to support and help those traumatized women so that they can take a new step in their lives.

Intense!

The author's gripping story brought me back to a time when a relative went through the same experiences. No one outside of these situations know what it is like to the person who is living through it daily. Experiences like this impact every single aspect of life, including the people around us...the children, the immediate family, and the community in general because it robs the individual of the opportunity to shine and be the best version of themselves. The sad part is that society sometimes turn a blind eye or, the people who are supposed to help sometimes are not trained correctly and at times make the situation worse. Kudos to the writer for being so vulnerable and giving voice to the many voiceless women out there who will use your story to gain the courage they need to stand. Good job!

Powerful memoir

This is a really powerful memoir. I was very impressed with how the author reflects on what she went through and the strategies one needs to deal with the trauma she suffered. Abusive relationships are unfortunately very prevalent in today’s society, and this book is a great reminder that it is never too late to change your circumstances and alter your path. Very courageous insights are revealed, and the whole book is narrated clearly and easy to follow. Well done to the author.

Very powerful book

This is a great book with a powerful message. This book follows a woman’s journey through life. She suffers abuse at the hands of men. This book shows us that there can be a way out of the cycle of abuse. Women need to realize their worth and stop following the same patterns of abuse in their relationships. I highly recommend this book. If anyone is going this in their life, they could benefit from reading this book.

goose bumps

The narration of this book gave me goose bumps, besides the fact that some of the tales are chilling. If you are in a toxic relationship, you may not even know. Others around you will know, though. The author had Mrs. Ellis and Heidi. She has God. You have this book. Read it, and allow the love of other people, and most importantly the love of God to take you out of abuse and pain.

Voice for the voiceless!

A Traumatic memoir. The author describes her childhood experience and how this has affected the person she grew up to be. She has voiced out what victims of domestic violence experience without even realising it. This is a must-have for anyone currently experiencing or has done so in the past.

intense, thoughtful & moving read

This is a great listen for anyone who has been in a relationship that didn't work out. The author's personal anecdotes and experience make this an emotional and rewarding read. It is so helpful to hear another person's story, especially when it is told in such a vulnerable way.

Dating patterns, getting to know the way you form relationships, and knowing what to look out for in a partner are all so important when trying to find meaningful and healthy love. All of these aspects are discussed, and the book is filled with advice. Highly recommend it! A very insightful, moving read.
