About the Author

A. Tanders, Ed.D. was born and lived in Alabama until age nine. She lived in Pennsylvania until 19 years old. She moved to Missouri where she currently resides. She attended Lindenwood University where she attained a BBA, a MBA, and an Ed.D. She is an avid reader and a published author. In her healing from childhood trauma and abandonment issues that touched every fiber of her being, was a desire to research her history to put pieces together of her life as an adult.

The death of Dr. Tanders' daughter several years ago started the journey of healing the grief she suffered. Dr. Tanders was finally able to face the fact that she has dealt with childhood trauma and abandonment issues all her life, and has now begun her journey of healing, self-love, and personal growth. Dr. Tanders began writing journals earlier in her life to help make sense of her life's journey into adulthood, which was one of many inspirations to write this book.
