Lessons On A Hike

Morning friends, Wow, we have had quite a week. We’ve had a lively and productive discussion on spiritual abuse in marriage on this blog.

Read MoreSelf Compassion Shows Strength – Not Weakness
Morning Friends, I thought I would do something completely different for the blog during the month of July. Instead of answering a reader’s question, I wanted to ask a few questions of my own. I have asked a few different individuals to guest blog their experience in a destructive marriage on how they stayed well, how they left well, and…

Hi Friends, I’m in Italy this week, my first time. I’m very excited to be here with my sister, her husband and mine. We are visiting three cities, Rome, Florence, and Venice.
