It's ok to thrive as a trauma survivor.

It's OK to thrive as a trauma survivor.

Somewhere in this journey is whatever we define as our place of healing. I think about what it means to me to be successful, and knowing that surviving child abuse is not simply about living, it’s about thriving. I am so consumed with the idea that it is OK to thrive. How do we grow through the concrete to reveal a beautiful rose? Maybe it’s resilience or maybe it’s fortitude. Either way, we find a way, and it’s not enough to say good enough, no, we must say I’m just getting started.
