What happens when the unthinkable shatters your life? For years, I lived with the weight of trauma, convinced I would never heal. North of Broken is the story of how I confronted that pain head-on and found a way through—not just to survive, but to rebuild, reclaim, and rise.

This prescriptive memoir blends personal storytelling with practical guidance, offering both a candid look at my journey and tools readers can use on their own path toward healing. With honesty and hope, I explore the realities of PTSD, the messy process of recovery, and the small, courageous steps that create transformation.

Whether you’ve experienced trauma yourself, love someone who has, or simply want to understand the resilience of the human spirit, North of Broken is an invitation: to walk alongside me through the darkness, and to discover that healing is possible—even when it feels out of reach.
