Intro Blog Post

I am about as "Main Street" as they come. An "All American Girl" with a dream to marry the right man, in the right place at the right time and raise a family. All I wanted my whole life was a white picket fence, a home, a husband, a family and my own "happily ever after." For the most part, I lived my dream, but what I didn't know is that the dream would turn into a nightmare that would nearly destroy me. But it didn't.

I am sharing my story on the off chance it helps another Sister who is in the same nightmare and cannot wake up. I am not an expert. I'm just like any other woman you know; an (ex)wife, mother, sister, daughter, or your friend next door. I have come out of the darkness and into the light to share my experiences. I have changed my married name so that I can speak out boldly without regret or redress.  The only way we can heal or change this evil is it speak the truth! 

I am you, your neighbor, your best friend, your sister, or even if you are a guy reading this, your wife. I'm not shy about sharing what happened to me. It's a story that needs to be told, because it blindsided me and left me reeling, my whole world was shattered, burned down, destroyed...in a instant. I hope it never happens to anyone, especially to you! But the odds are just not in our favor, and you need to know this is rare. More importantly, if it happens to you, you need to know you are not alone!

It is my hope that you find comfort and peace here. This is a safe place where women like me "get it" and we are here to help you. So take my hand, let's get to know one another, you are my friend, even though I haven't met you yet. We have commonalities that will make us instant soul mates.

One last thing, I am unapologetically, a believer in Christ. Everything I write is from that perspective, I hope that doesn’t offend you, but if it does thanks for visiting and have a nice day! If it doesn't, I am hoping that my gospel perspective will give you encouragement to turn towards your Savior, not away from Him. This is the time you will need Him the most! Get a cupcake, hot chocolate, a cup of tea,or whatever you like and get cozy. You are going to want to be very kind to yourself from here on out... recovery from betrayal is tough and it's work! It's going to take all the self care you can handle! Together...we can do this!
