Welcome Back to Me
Stacey (that’s “ey”) L. Tidwell

While everyone’s version of coming back to themselves looks a little different, I have found that the key is accepting one’s past and learning from it. For me, it took a long time – filled with plenty of tears and missteps – but eventually I was able to recognize the strength within myself that had been there all along. The process wasn’t easy, but it did lead me to a better understanding of myself and how my values and experiences could help empower others who are searching for their paths after traumatic events. Now, instead of being a victim of it, I am now able to see the moments that “made” me as gifts, gifts that any individual can find in their own unique journey of self-discovery.
The women I work with come from all walks of life, but they share a common bond: they are determined to overcome and heal from the pain of trauma. These courageous women often surprise me at their resilience, turning tough times into learning experiences that lead to personal growth and success. It is never too late to start the journey of self-discovery and find the courage within to make all of your goals a reality. With strength, courage and dedication, it is possible to move beyond the pain of trauma and create the life you long for and deserve.
