By IRB Media

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The breaking down of a life into pieces is a painful process, and it is even more difficult to endure. When your life begins to unravel, piece by piece, there is nothing you can do to stop it. You see what is happening, and you know what is happening, but you don’t know what to do about it.

#2 The truth is that I knew for a long time that I needed to share the story of my most recent life experiences. The experiences I had after I had become famous. The truth is that I was being disobedient to my own inner guidance. I was afraid of the responsibility of standing up straight in the power and majesty of what my life was becoming.

#3 I am going to tell you a story about how a New York Times best-selling author ended up flat broke, looking for a place to live. I am going to share with you the intimate details of how an internationally recognized spiritual teacher ended up on the edge of the bed in a million-dollar home, contemplating suicide.

#4 My story is a demonstration of the generational karmic energy that affects how we see ourselves and how that identity often works against our best interest. It is something that many women experience and struggle to live past.

#5

I want to encourage you to remember that this is my story, and how I remember it. It has nothing to do with how anyone else remembers it or sees it. I want you to read my story with the awareness that we each come into this life with a spiritual curriculum.

#6

I have learned that it is the presence and power of family patterns that live in our blood that make it absolutely necessary to have a solid spiritual foundation. If I have learned anything in the last five years of my life, it is that I can depend on God.
