Thank you for supporting me
Damaged Girl is a memoir of pain, love, and healing. Part two, “More Than A Runaway,” creates a fully rounded experience to bring the story into an equivalent journey. Millions of people have experienced some form of abuse or trauma. This series/movie would allow the consumer to feel connected, heard, and not alone. Growing up on Cape Cod and Western Massachusetts was full of beautiful beaches and memories. If only dreams could last and all happiness didn’t end early. Victimized by nine, forced to fear the monster creeping in and out of our lives by the grace of god, things finally changed. Or at least we hoped. Doomed to have this monster follow in the shadows, it was only a matter of time before the miles couldn’t protect me from the man who hurt me. Life takes unexpected turns, and life can twist you up inside.
Damaged Girl is the first part of a series about a life full of ups and downs. Mental, emotional, and sexual abuse was no stranger to Elise. Her will to fight and continue to live even after suicide attempts, depression, and postpartum gives hope to young women struggling with finding their purpose and balance in life. This memoir tells the tale of a young girl growing up in Cape Cod and Western Massachusetts. A life of pain, love, and healing made way for an opportunity to change and be an accurate representation of what it means to look within and search for healing. Life is a journey of ups and downs; we all lose faith.
More Than a Runaway
The audiobook version comes two years after self-publishing part two of the Memoir Damaged Girl. I believe everyone should have access to healing.
The audiobook version of the self-help and combined continuation of the memoir. Enjoy unlimited access and free downloads. Keep healing, keep growing, and never stop loving.
More than a Runaway is the self-help book for the Memoir Damaged Girl. This book shows more of the trauma endured and provides hope and guidance for those looking to turn their trauma into motivation to heal and maybe even go on to write their own story to inspire others. This book allows you to understand how trauma, pain, and healing can bring you more into balance with yourself. Like in the first book, Damaged Girl, the poems bring a creative and artistic approach to healing.
If you or someone you know has suffered from abuse, depression, and PTSD from trauma, this book and the first sequel, Damaged Girl, will help bring a voice of truth, hope, and comfort to those looking to be heard.
You are not alone, and you don't have to be.
Poetry is something I have been doing since I was twelve years old and the best way I found to express myself. The memoir series both featured poems to close out each chapter and after much great feedback, we went on to publish two poetry books. This is the most recent release and is a compilation of the dark night of the soul and coming out of the shadows through heartbreak, love, and spirituality.
Thank you for taking the time to listen.
