From Domestic Abuse to Faith, Healing & Empowerment with Life Coach Veronica Burnett

Veronicas mission is to educate, empower, and encourage individuals especially Black women and seniors to break free from toxic, dead-end cycles of abuse and pain.
This important conversation comes at a time when stories like Cassie Ventura and Diddy Combs high-profile trial remind us that domestic violence is an age-old problem, still plaguing families and communities today. Veronica also reflects on the tragic murder of Yeardley Love, another heartbreaking reminder of how domestic abuse cuts across all walks of life.
Veronica shares practical, faith-centered steps for anyone ready to break the chains of abuse and reclaim their life:
Trust God first, so you can learn to trust yourself again.
Forgive your abusers, not for them but to free your mind, spirit, and future.
Refuse to blame your abuser when challenges come shift your energy to your own healing journey.
Become intentional about building a new, healthy mindset focused on the present and future, not the past.
Forgiveness is so important, Veronica says. It will free your whole life, your mind, and your spirit and help you bring your smile back.
