Summary
Details

"A deep, heavy, and factual look at a real-life care history, foster care abuse, parental alienation, and emotional and sexual abuse.

Kate's lived experience is told in its raw form through the eyes of the abused. She is not afraid to provide an insightful view, with unflinching honesty, speaking the truth of her emotional survival destructions.

A raw glimpse into how abuse, alienation, and a flawed system impairs a life forever, and the effects of searching to gain validation and heal.

Kate expresses: 'I have walked out of some of my therapy sessions excited I have a new direction and a new life goal. Then I am hit by the number ""69 bus or swallowed up by an earthquake and I am a wreck in a smashed-up derby, raising red flags to stop everyone from hurting me.'

From infancy to adulthood, physical and mental manipulation impaired Kate's life. She endured emotional and physical abuse in foster care, then sexual abuse by a priest and her employers.

It's not just a few, but over 8 significant and complex traumas. Kate is questioning whether she will survive what's coming next.'

The exploration delves into the intricate traumas Kate experiences from childhood to adulthood, revealing her strengths and vulnerabilities, as she honestly reflects on a prejudiced upbringing."
