What happens when the truth you buried for decades refuses to stay silent?

Broken Secrets is a raw, courageous memoir about survival, motherhood, and reclaiming one’s voice after years of trauma, manipulation, and silence.

From the outside, I was doing everything I could to build a stable life for my children—raising four kids as a single mother, navigating custody battles, enduring false reports, and surviving repeated upheaval. Behind closed doors, I was carrying the weight of unresolved trauma stemming from sexual assault, grooming, and abuse that began when I was only fifteen years old.

This book follows my journey through years of relentless challenges: toxic relationships, systemic failures, grief, and the emotional toll of always having to prove I was “good enough.” It chronicles the moments that nearly broke me—and the moments that rebuilt me stronger. At its core, this is a story about choosing courage over fear, boundaries over silence, and truth over shame.

With unflinching honesty, I explore how trauma shapes decision-making, how survivors often blame themselves, and how healing is neither linear nor easy. When I finally report my assault decades later, I confront the harsh realities of the justice system—yet discover that reclaiming my power does not depend on a courtroom outcome.

Broken Secrets is more than a memoir. It is a testament to resilience, a love letter to motherhood, and a powerful reminder that no matter how long it takes, it is never too late to speak, to heal, and to rise.
