About this listen
Rise from the Shadows: A Journey to Freedom is a heart-wrenching and inspiring memoir that chronicles the author's harrowing experiences with domestic violence and her courageous journey to reclaim her life. From a childhood marred by a violent father, the author recounts terrifying nights and the lasting scars left on her psyche. As she grows older, the pattern of abuse continues in her romantic relationships, culminating in a profoundly traumatic relationship with Ray Allen, a controlling and manipulative mail carrier. Despite relentless emotional and physical abuse, she finds the strength to leave, seek help, and rebuild her life.
She gradually learns to reclaim her self-worth and find peace through therapy, support groups, and the unwavering support of friends and family. The memoir also explores her relationship with David, a kind and understanding partner who helps her heal and understand what true love and respect look like. This powerful narrative is a testament to resilience, the importance of seeking help, and the belief that a better life is possible. It is a beacon of hope for anyone trapped in the cycle of abuse, offering inspiration and practical advice for breaking free and finding happiness.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Men call them gold diggers, women call them hos, but they call themselves winners. This is the book that society doesn't want you to listen to….

A Powerful Testament to Resilience and Hope
"Rise from the Shadows: A Journey to Freedom" is a compelling memoir that inspired me deeply. The author's raw and honest account of her experiences with domestic violence is heart-wrenching, yet her courage and resilience shine through every page. This book is not just a story of survival but a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the possibility of reclaiming one's life. It's a must-read for anyone seeking a story of hope and empowerment. I couldn't put it down and was rooting for her every step of the way. Five stars!
