BEST MOMENTS

"I just want everyone listening to know that... healing is possible... And this is coming from two people who've experienced this trauma, who have." 

"I think it's also important to stress and not label ourselves as 'victims', because we're not victims, we're survivors & thrivors of this." 

"It's changing that mindset, changing that perspective, because your trauma is not your identity. It doesn't need to keep you small."
