The Book
Purpose in the Pain is an unapologetically honest account of my life story of abuse, crippling fear, pain and suffering. More importantly it demonstrates that there is always hope in the midst of our deepest despair. It identifies how without successfully setting boundaries with everyone we encounter; anyone has the potential to become an abuser on our journey. Forgiveness for oneself and others is one of the abiding elements to overcoming life challenges along with understanding self-worth.
