Publisher's Synopsis
"Raw & relatable"
This book is for all the overwhelmed moms. That's all of us, right?Written by a mom, for other moms. It's especially for moms who are survivors of sexual abuse, domestic abuse, or trauma. Hannah Redden, author of Me and Jesus Covered in Pee, has just released a book on motherhood that offers a fresh voice to the often generic parenting books. This is not bland platitudes. This is real life and real motherhood, dealing with real trauma and real issues of faith. Motherhood is challenging enough, let alone when you're trying to work through your own baggage and learn how to heal from the trauma of childhood sexual abuse in your past. The daily challenges of trying to find a matching pair of socks or a clean pair of black leggings in the laundry that hasn't been folded for two weeks -- those pale in comparison to crying in therapy for months on end, trying to not self-medicate your anxiety and depression with alcohol, or breaking down on your bathroom floor overwhelmed with your body shutting down from PTSD.- If you're wanting to break the chains of generational abuse,
- If you're wanting to raise healthy kids who will be free of trauma,
- If you're wanting to hold onto your faith, and not give up on your family,
This book is for you. Me and Jesus Covered in Pee is full of real life and real talk. You're not alone, momma.
