About this listen

This story is told through the jagged peephole of the author's awareness, examining her formative wounds and influences from the perspective of a woman who has now gained experience and wisdom. As she peers over her soul's shoulder, she recalls the chaos of her once-fragile childhood mind. She shudders as she is reminded of the sting of her lonely childhood, her feelings of abandonment, and her painful memories of being bullied. Her childhood self was once so lost that she even contemplated suicide. As the years progress, her mind is riddled with obsession, compulsion, and a crippling sense of low self-esteem. A turning point arrives many years later, after marriage and the birth of three children.

This story is about healing the faulty programming of childhood. It is about recovery from relationship addiction, food addiction, anxiety, and constant fear. It is a human story that will resonate with listeners from all walks of life, and which offers hope to anyone who has felt imprisoned by the past.

You may find out how your own early family traumas affected you by listening to Lisa’s story if your going to listen to this you must find her on YouTube I found her by accident after I read her story and it’s changed my life toward healing from a family I didn’t even know had downloaded dysfunctional messages into my mind of unworthiness. I’m now learning that I didn’t deserve to feel unheard and unseen and I can know and uphold now as an adult what I know I always deserved and deserved from those in my life now.

This is a stunning book. How her story is so like mine was comforting and at the same time painful. My heart hurt for her because I had lived so much of what she had… And several times the lump in my throat and the tears in my eyes Proved to be cathartic.

 A must read !
