While searching for the will, courage, and strength that she needed, she found not only all of that within herself but also her relationship with God.

"If I can help just ONE person sharing my story, then it was worth putting it out there. I believe God put all of these unspeakable acts in my life so that I could write this book and help someone else heal their pain." Kate Brady

This is a book for anyone who has lost their faith or confidence in themselves because of situations beyond their control. It is a story about loss, courage, struggle, and love. The story is an exploration of how we as traumatized adults have grown from our childhood and its many painful scenarios. This is about overcoming the negative ideals of others about you and turning them into positive experiences and opportunities for change and growth. This is for those searching for their true selves all while embracing the pain that we sometimes don't talk about or want to remember. This is a story based on true events and occurrences, but most of all it is a story of survival and strength through adversity. This is a love letter to a tragic childhood draped in fear, sexual abuse, physical and mental abuse, lies; and the growth that flowed through the unimaginable pain. It is one domestic violence survivor's story, the healing process of EMDR therapy and how it can help trauma and PTSD survivors feel whole again, gave her the courage to share.
