Drawing from her own upbringing in a home filled with conflict, fear, and brokenness, Sharon offers both personal insight and practical tools for moving forward even in moments where the story of our life seems so grim. She discusses what tends to keep many people stuck in their current story and how to break free. Sharon explains why forgiveness is essential for healing (and what happens if we resist it), how shame keeps us trapped, and how to step out of it. As she walks through her own story of brokenness to restoration, Sharon also discovered that sharing her story disarmed her shame.&amp;nbsp; Sharon reminds us that healing is not about erasing the past, but instead transforming how we see it as God uses us for His glory.
