What People are Saying About This

Lundy Bancroft

“This book offers faith, courage and dignity to women who have survived the destructive and selfish actions of abusive men. Susan's message is 'Don't settle for anything less than a life that is better than ever.' She knows that women can do it and by the time a woman has worked her way through this excellent guidebook for healing, she will believe it, too.”—Lundy Bancroft, author, Why Does He Do That?: Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men

Evan Stark

“Susan begins with a rare insight—that what makes a battered woman is not what the abuser has done to her but what he has kept her from doing for herself—and then takes her readers on a jubilant journey of self-realization. On the way, Susan helps them remake their world and get back in touch with their power and possibility.”—Evan Stark PhD, MSW, Professor, School of Public Affairs and Administration, Rutgers University-Newark and author, Coercive Control: How Men Entrap Women in Personal Life
