Journey

About the Book

People experience traumatic events in life that so often leave them broken and feeling unworthy, lonely, misunderstood, and even hopeless. This book was born out of some of my experiences and how I was able to find a sense of peace, self-love, and self-acceptance as I navigated through obstacles from my past. “Journey” provides spiritual anecdotes that will provide hope and a road map in helping you become an overcomer.
