I’ve been a great mother AND I made some huge mistakes in raising my children. I watched helplessly as my daughter repeated some of my struggles with emotional eating and weight gain. This caused me sadness, pain, hurt, shame, guilt, and embarrassment.
In this newly released book, “Unchain My Legacy”, me and 11 other amazing women came together in collaboration with Audra R. Upchurch to expose the truth about the decisions that threatened to shackle us and our families.
In my chapter, ‘I Wish I Had Known This When I Was 13’, I talked about the emotional debt that I inherited and in turn passed on to my daughter, even though I vowed that I would never do that. In many communities this is classified as generational curses.
But that’s not all!!! I also shared about repair, restoration, love, hope, grace, and forgiveness. I was very transparent in my writing, weaving in my clinical knowledge as a licensed marriage and family therapist and at the end, I shared 10 revelations to help others navigate the unchaining process.
