October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

This one’s personal for me.

I grew up seeing things no child should have to see. And I know firsthand that what happens behind closed doors can affect families for generations.

It’s one of the reasons I’ve spent so much of my life fighting for those who don’t always have a voice.

If you’re experiencing it—let me say clearly, there is NOTHING that you could do or say that warrants someone putting their hands on you or harming you in any way.

If you can’t walk away, start working on a plan to leave safely. Call the hotline, they can let you know what resources are available to help. ❤️

I was honored to be invited to speak today at a National Recovery Month celebration and share the story behind my memoir, Cinder Girl. God has done so much in my life—I love showing the power of forgiveness.

Thank you to Pastor Dr. Darren Facen and his wife, Terri, at New Dimensional Christian Church in Rolla for welcoming me, and to Project HEAL and everyone who helped make the day possible.
