ABOUT THE BOOK

The New York Times bestselling author of A Well-Trained Wife returns with the guide her readers need next: How to reclaim life after experiencing high levels of religious and domestic control.

What does it mean to heal from trauma caused by the people, beliefs, and practices of your faith?

Indoctrinated from early childhood to obey, conform, and want what others wanted for her, Tia Levings learned love and acceptance meant being someone other than herself. After years of abuse in a violent marriage and high-control religion, Tia Levings escaped with her children (a story told in her memoir, A Well-Trained Wife) and thought the hardest was behind her.

But that was just the beginning.

With an audacious persistence to reclaim her life, Tia set off on a 15-year path to psychological peace. The result is an emotionally regulated, actualized, self-aware woman who is able to tell her harrowing story without retraumatizing herself —a woman who can reach back to help others claim what’s theirs. If trauma took your past, it shouldn't get your present and future too.

Through a series of personal stories, therapeutic stages, and resources, Tia Levings guides readers through the journey that helped her leave abuse, rediscover selfhood, and heal her mind, soul, and body after religious trauma —so that you can too.
