From Hurt to Hope: a blog for charting the journey to mental healing and empowerment.

About

Welcome to Trauma Momma’s Mental Health and Healing Haven!

Hello there, lovely souls! I’m Deb , and I’m thrilled to welcome you to this space where we embark on a journey of mental health, healing, and shared understanding. As a seasoned mom raising two incredible teenagers, my heart is deeply invested in creating a supportive community for those navigating the often challenging waters of parenthood and personal growth.

For over two decades, I found solace and joy in the world of theater education, shaping young minds and fostering creativity on and off the stage. Now, my passion for healing and helping others has led me to this blog, where I share insights, experiences, and resources to empower you on your own path to well-being.

Beyond the curtains and the applause, you’ll find me indulging in my other loves – baking and all things spooky! There’s something magical about creating delicious treats and exploring the mysterious side of life, and I can’t wait to weave these elements into our discussions, making this space uniquely ours.

Life hasn’t always been a walk in the park for me. I’ve faced a myriad of traumas that have shaped my journey, and it’s my sincere desire to turn these challenges into sources of strength and resilience. Through this blog, I aim to provide a safe haven for those seeking understanding, compassion, and guidance on their own healing journey.

So, whether you’re a parent navigating the teenage years, a fellow lover of the arts, a baking enthusiast, or someone simply drawn to the mysterious and spooky, I invite you to join me. Let’s build a supportive community, share our stories, and embrace the beauty of healing together.

Here’s to the incredible journey ahead – one filled with growth, understanding, and the warmth of a virtual community that cares.

With love and light

Trauma is a result of an overwhelming sense of danger, powerlessness, and fear. Healing is a result of feeling safe, empowered, and supported.

Personal Motto “A life lived in fear is life half lived.“

Family

Pain travels through families until someone is ready to heal it in themselves. By going through the agony of healing you no longer pass the poison chalice onto the generations that follow. It is incredibly important and sacred work.

Relationships

A broken heart heals when we allow the healing to go as deep as the wound went.

Self

Heal yourself, find yourself, know yourself, correct yourself, see yourself, love yourself, be yourself, respect yourself.
