From Wounded to Wise Woman: Rising from the Ashes of Abuse



There was a time in my life when I felt so hollow, so broken, that it seemed like I was fading into nothing. Abuse has a way of doing that to you—slowly chipping away at who you are until you feel stripped of everything you once knew. I remember the numbness, the overwhelming feeling of isolation, and the haunting thought that maybe this was all I deserved. Abuse left me in a place of emptiness, like standing alone in a vast, cold void where no one could reach me, see me, or understand the weight I carried.


The relationships I was in didn’t just break my heart; they fractured my soul. Abuse can wear so many faces—sometimes it’s words that cut deeper than any physical wound, words that leave scars on your spirit. Other times, it’s the quiet manipulation, the gaslighting, that makes you question your reality, your worth, and even your sanity. The more I tried to hold on, to make things work, the more I felt like I was disappearing, losing myself in the shadows cast by another’s darkness.


I endured moments I wouldn’t wish upon anyone. There were times I felt physically unsafe, moments when I genuinely feared for my life. I felt as though I was standing at the edge of a cliff, teetering between survival and surrender, each day a battle against an unseen force determined to crush me. Those days were so dark, it felt like I’d never see light again.


The pain was suffocating. I remember sitting alone, feeling as though the world had gone silent, leaving me stranded in the aftermath of everything that had happened. I felt naked, exposed, and raw—left with wounds so deep I wondered if they’d ever heal. I struggled to find the strength to keep going. Trauma has a way of convincing you that there’s nothing left, that this darkness is all there is. It’s a lie that feels so real, so heavy, that it’s almost impossible to believe in anything else.


But somehow, even in that darkest hour, there was a flicker of something deep within me—a spark I didn’t fully understand but one that refused to be extinguished. It was as if my soul was quietly whispering, “There’s more for you. You can rise from this.” I began to cling to that whisper, letting it pull me, step by step, out of the shadows. It wasn’t easy. Healing never is. It meant facing the pain I’d buried, feeling every ounce of heartache, fear, and betrayal I’d tried so hard to ignore. But as I confronted those pieces of myself, I discovered something I hadn’t expected: strength.


Healing was like peeling back layers, each one revealing a part of myself I thought was lost. And with each layer, I started to remember who I was beneath the trauma. I began to recognize my power, my resilience, and my inner wisdom. The parts of me that had been buried were coming back to life, and in that process, I discovered something beautiful—I had gifts. Intuition, insight, and a deep connection to something greater than myself. It was as if the darkness had been a cocoon, forcing me to turn inward and rediscover the light I carried.


I became a phoenix, rising from the ashes of my past, transformed by my pain and strengthened by the very wounds that once held me back. I realized that my journey wasn’t just about surviving—it was about learning, evolving, and stepping into the person I was always meant to be. My trauma had once seemed like the end, but in truth, it was the beginning of my transformation.


Today, I am not just a survivor. I am someone who has alchemized pain into power, wounds into wisdom. I am here, standing strong, and ready to help other women do the same. I created **Wounded to Wise** because I know that, like me, there are countless women who feel broken by their pasts, who feel invisible and unworthy of the life they dream of. I’m here to say that your past does not define you. You have the power to rise, to heal, and to reclaim every piece of yourself that trauma tried to steal.


Imagine a new chapter, one that YOU get to write. This is not a fairytale—it’s a reality waiting for you. Through Wounded to Wise Woman, I guide women on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment. We don’t just move on from trauma; we transform it. We use it to awaken spiritual gifts that have been lying dormant, to reclaim the power that was always within you, and to craft a life where you are no longer a victim of your circumstances, but a creator of your destiny.


If you feel lost, if you feel broken, I want you to know that healing is possible. Imagine waking up each day feeling free, grounded, and in control. Imagine embracing every part of who you are, scars and all, knowing that they are symbols of your strength, not your suffering. Imagine reconnecting with your spirit, your intuition, and your truth. This is the path of Wounded to Wise Woman, and I am here to walk it with you.


You are not alone, and you are not broken. You are a woman becoming whole, reclaiming her magic, her power, and her voice. Trauma does not get the final say. You do.


If you’re ready to leave the shadows behind, if you’re ready to rise from the ashes, I invite you to join me on this journey. Together, we will transform your pain into purpose, your wounds into wisdom. This is your time. This is your story. Let’s make it one of courage, strength, and radiant transformation.


If you're ready to rewrite your own story and step into your power once again, let's connect!
