Not long into their trip, both engines of their plane catch fire and send them careening into a mountainside in the middle of a terrible snowstorm.

I spent some of the darkest months of my life struggling to find a reason to get up in the morning. In my first awakening, I disassociated from my parents. My first husband cheated on me. My second husband carried on long affairs over the course of 15 years and told me he regretted ever bringing a child into the world with me. I had convinced myself that I wasn’t fit to be a mother, a spouse, or a daughter. Other than being a good accountant, I could find no value within myself to offer the world.

A journey through marriage, infidelity, divorce, and starting over. Facing the darkness and choosing to step into the light. Discovering the purpose of forgiveness, how to practice compassion, the necessity of radical acceptance, and the distinction between self-care and self-love. Healing old wounds, releasing the past, taking back our power, and reclaiming our worth so that we may awaken the Light Warrior within.
