My Current Past: From Pain to Purpose - An Empowering Story of A Search For Love and My Mother's Addiction
Through my profession as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I discovered many answers to my past. These insights gave me the ability to chart my future, free from the influence of my mother's addiction. I learned to accept that I had no control over her sobriety or her ability to love me. This acceptance empowered me to focus on my life, my future, and my path to success.
When I was only three years old, addiction ripped my family apart, sucking me into a lifestyle no child should endure. Living with my mother's addiction cultivated in me a passion to encourage, uplift, and provide guidance to others whose lives are affected by a loved one's addiction.
Along with chasing my dreams, I also chased my mother's love. Her failed attempts at sobriety translated into my personal failures; and rather than finding a mother's love, I uncovered a devastating roller coaster of high hopes, insecurities, forgiveness, pain, and broken promises. Now, who was going to save me?
As I flourished in my profession and matured as an adult, I realized that the love I was searching for was within me the entire time. We have the ability to save ourselves through:
- Education
- Realization
- Acceptance
- Positive Actions
Come with me to see how I stepped out of pain and into delightful purpose.
