About the author

Willa-Mae worked as a counsellor for several years, and many of her clients were abused women and also persons with addictions. Their lives were most often filled with unhealed trauma.

She realized that her own experiences had needed healing and began to write her story, hoping that it might help others who were carrying unhealed trauma with them as scars, blocking peace from their lives.

Her story is actually many stories in one, showing the pain, grief, anxiety, secrets, and scars that had affected her life for so many years. She wanted to help others find the same peace, love and happiness through reading her story.
