Wonderful story that really resonated!
This book told a story of transformation that most us us can only dream about. I found so many parallels to my own journey, yet the freedom that Victoria had is something that I have not been able to find in my own life. I too, share the legacy of a traumatic family experience and abandonment, but where her mother was distant, my mother was chronically possessive, while suffering from bipolar disorder and depression that made it impossible for me to break free. I was able to distance myself a small amount by starting my own family, but running from the strangle-hold of my mother to the strangle-hold of a husband and children doesn’t seem like the best way to realize your own dreams. I am a happily divorced single mother and I love and know that my children were apart of my souls plan, but I can acknowledge that it has tremendously slowed down my process of finding the spiritual path that I seek. Or, it has brought it to the forefront.
Reading Victoria’s story has affirmed that I am on the right path as a seeker and to look for my own signs and synchronicities to push me forward in my own journey. Thank you for sharing your story!
