Is it possible to rewrite the scripts of fear and insecurities holding us back? This insightful and playful look at the author’s childhood will encourage you to reflect on your own life.

Many of us had to navigate childhood through a maze of broken relationships, dysfunctional families, neglect and even trauma, yet as adults we can empower the child we were, to gain clarity, self acceptance and forgiveness through the healing journey of retrospection.

A unique blend of memoir and healing practices, the author takes you along in real time through the process of emptying her parents’ home as they transitioned into assisted living.

She expertly weaves the vivid stories of her childhood with compassion and intent to heal and forgive.

Told with humor, honesty, and empathetic insight, you are guided to gain adult perspective, to send love and acceptance back in time to the child still living within. Retrospection can be a powerful healing elixir.

You will cry, you will cheer, you will learn self acceptance and forgiveness. You will learn to let go, to stop fighting old battles, to rewrite the recordings others imposed upon you of self doubt and fear, with new ones of empowered acceptance and understanding.

Looking back has a way of clearing your vision for looking forward.
