She has two choices: she can give up completely or start choosing herself, one day at a time. That’s exactly the choice Kimberly Sigurdson made: to heal, moment by moment. Growing up amid dysfunction, anger, and emotionally unavailable parents, Kimberly soon lost her voice and became a people pleaser. As she grew older, this led to dysfunctional relationships, where she put others’ needs before her own and made unhealthy choices. She felt stuck and unworthy and struggled with low self esteem. When an autoimmune disease flare-up landed her in the hospital at thirty-seven, Kimberly decided it was time to change her life. As her healing journey progressed, she found writing helped her release her thoughts and feelings and allowed her to share with the people she needed to. As Kimberly healed from her past, her letters changed. Her growth mindset provided a path to evolution, and she grew from writing from a place of self-pity to writing from a place of feeling grateful and empathetic to those who had hurt her. Follow Kimberly on her healing journey as she realizes it was never about not being good enough. Learn alongside her as she discovers that the way people treat others reflects how they feel about themselves and what they’ve been through in their own lives.
