"If you knew me at the time, you'd think I was a high-powered, have-it-all-together superwoman. Everyone did. But inside, I was anything but. I didn't want to admit it, and it took a real "rise and fall" event before I could take an honest look at myself. But today, I'm proud not only to have survived but

to have freed myself from the burden of my secret; I was sick, emotionally and mentally. My intention is that as you read this book, you'll begin to see yourself in a different light, just like I did. I'm going to share with you how we can better deal with broken, dysfunctional, and even abusive relationships, and how to better deal with toxic people, both at work and in your personal life. Together we'll pave new roads for you to gain more confidence, more

joy, and overcome the depression and anxiety that's been inside your soul for too long."
