Thank you for your amazing work Janyne. It had been instrumental in my healing journey and I look forward to reading more.

I am being brave and am going try to interact with your posts, stepping out of my comfort zone. As such here is my introduction…

I am Adrianna and I have a wonderful husband and three beautiful children. I live at the bottom of Australia.

I am slowly healing from my own childhood trauma and am wrestling with the impact my parents’ mental illness had and continues to have. I have also experienced religious trauma, with an abusive and toxic church situation. We had a number of years break from attending a church in order to heal and I am finally ready to dangle my toe in again.

I enjoy many creative pursuits- gardening, drawing, crafts, writing… I am also a primary school teacher which I find very rewarding.

Welcome Adrianna! I am so glad to have you here. One of my first sales of BRAVE internationally was delivered to another resident of Tasmania so having you here has so much meaning. I also was a teacher of young children and it shows up often in my writing. I am glad my worked has encouraged you on your healing journey. I hope being part of this group will continue to encourage you as you heal--so many layers.
