essentials for protection throughout the body , help with energy production and poison conversion . Cleaning the life force and removing infection . When applied to the idea that a survivor , a Liver , does these things because the only other option is a death or sorts , and for Livers , that just simply isn ’ t an option !
For those that have Lived through this and continue to make a choice everyday to stare down those demons , job well done love ! But for those who struggle to find their footing on the rocky cliffs of despair , shame , and worthlessness-always reaching for freeness , hopes , and light- it is totally possible to get there . Simply fighting back in the way you need to , finding a support system , finding a person or two that you can trust to share your story with is enough to give you a stronghold on that ledge so that you can pull yourself back up . How do I know this ? I ’ ve fucken LIVED this !
I ’ ve : > Fought my way out of depressions caused by the shame > Come back from an attempted suicide because of the pain > Lived with such guilt and powerlessness > Been known to speak his name boldly and loudly > Share my story in the ways that feel right
There is something so inherently cathartic and cauterizing for me to be able to share my story with others . I honestly cannot tell you how many women have shared with me that they , too , were abused , raped , molested , or escaped trafficking . For some of them , I was the first person they told . Others : I was the first one they admitted their feelings about it to . The fact that many man and women live with this shit daily claws at my heart . It makes me want to do everything in my power to help them with theirs . If ever there was a soul aligned in a mission , its mine . If ever there was a woman who was going to change the world , it ’ s me . I may not change the world as a whole , but you best believe that I ’ m going to change someone ’ s whole world .
I may be pushing the second decade since the poison tainted my blood . But that doesn ’ t mean that the effects are just as strong . It ’ s been a long time and a lot of work on my part to get to the point where I only have * some * moments where a memory leaks in and ruins an otherwise beautiful moment . But everything is okay . It really , truly is . Because I didn ’ t * just * survive . I ’ m Living .

About the Author
Hiiiiiiiiiii !!! I ’ m Brittany Marie ~ Your No Bullshit Best Friend . My mission in this crazy life is to help men and women who have experienced sex related trauma heal , move on , and live freely . We burn their bullshit blankets ( the tales woven and stitched together by someone else ’ s hands ), we dig deep to wrench out the weeds and we paint their roses red so that they can start living as they are truly meant to live . Think of me as a cup of TLC and a dash of tough love to taste ;) When I ’ m not working with my clients , I ’ m hanging out with my menfolk . I know more than I ever thought possible about marine life thanks to my 5 year old and I ’ m constantly surprised by my 2 year old and his ability to ricochet off our furniture ! Some things I like : penguins , repeating words until they are nonsense , and telling people I ’ m a mother fucken mermicorn . Things I don ’ t like : excuses , lies , and horses ; horses scare the shit out of me ! brittanymariepetersheim . com � �
