We are at a tipping point. We can no longer sit on the sidelines of our lives. We must rise...we must heal...and we must reclaim our destiny.
After being diagnosed with Complex PTSD in 2018, after years of traumatic experiences, I was hit with the realization of how much I had given my power away to people, places and things that did not honor who I was or more importantly, were hinderances to where God wanted to take me.
The next several years after my diagnosis was spent relearning how to take back or shall I say...reclaim that power.
Many positive things were born from this newly reclaimed power including my dignity, self-esteem, and authority.
I created this podcast to help show you that if I can do it...so can you!
Join me each week on Reclaiming Destiny and we can start this journey together.
I hope you can make it but more importantly...I hope this is the start of you...reclaiming your destiny.
