From the top of an unlikely stone castle in Kansas, her mind's eye tracks the trajectory of her body as it falls to the rocks below. So begins the journey. From fierce survivor, holding pain at bay through sheer will and defiant denial, through the retracing of childhood powerlessness enduring physical, mental, and sexual abuse, and out into the light of choosing life, choosing joy, choosing love.The Truth About Winter is one woman's journey into her own power - one that requires her to wake from a long "winter of the soul" and discover that the truth of her abusive childhood is not in the events, but in the hearts and souls of the people who played their parts in those events, and ultimately, in the way she learns to alchemize her own painful memories into new depths of love and compassion.Her companions on this transformational journey are a soul sister-self she once banished from memory and who now returns to prompt, mirror, and celebrate her newly discovered truths, a timeless and mysterious rose gardener, a vivacious up-and-coming boxer, and a dying man and his devoted wife. These companions also play their parts in re-awakening the woman's memories and joining her on the path to embracing her truth and releasing her trauma. The Truth About Winter is a lyrical allegory, as poetic as it is confronting; revealing truths that heal trauma and empower readers.

Pulling together her experiences from years of coaching entrepreneurs and consulting in hundreds of small businesses across America, along with stories shared with her by mentors and teachers such as Richard Bach, Bob Burg, Mitch Matthews and John David Mann.
