“I think of myself as a highly sexual creature.”
Charlize Theron
“Facing the fear in order to heal is so much more important than the fear itself. The fear will fade in time and you will become stronger than you ever imagined.”
Cathy Gipson
“Face the monster, you know...the one that works overtime to keep you down. The one that tells you it was your fault, the one that tells you you deserved it, that you didn't fight hard enough, that tells you you trusted him so what did you expect, the one that tells you things will never get better. That monster....he's a liar. Get to know him, and then kick him to the curb!”
“Allow yourself to go through all the emotions, it's part of the process. Fight to take your life back, fight for your strength.”
“We can't control what happened, we can't control what has been lost. What we can control is how we fight to take that control back, and the voice within us is powerful in doing so....”
“There are always going to be obstacles, and that's true in the healing journey too. But we can tear down the walls of those obstacles and get through it. It's essential for our well being and taking back the control in our lives. Never give up!”
“Becoming empowered and beginning to talk and take back control is a scary thing....very scary. Those that want to keep us down are afraid of that too. But, becoming empowered is necessary.... People couldn't shut me up now if their life depended on it....”
