as Good the Best: Power and Possibility Beyond C PTSD

Winner of the 2026 Independent Publisher Book Awards (IPPY) Bronze Medal-New Age / Mind Body SpiritFROM TRAUMA TO BASELINE TO CONSCIOUS CREATIONI understand how hard it is to imagine possibility when you've spent your childhood in chaos, dysfunction, and/or poverty. How hard it is to feel powerful when the trauma you experienced was ongoing and inescapable for so long.Sometimes, the thoughts, beliefs, actions, and reactions that saved you as a child-that brought you here-are the exact thoughts, beliefs, actions, and reactions standing in the way of knowing and bringing forth your dreams as an adult.Sometimes, the resilience that ensured your survival demands you continue to be someone you no longer need to be.Combining somatic healing practices, positive psychology, socially conscious observation, deeply personal memoir, and a trauma-aware reimagining of manifestation, As Good as the Best explores what becomes possible when the echoes of trauma are no longer running your life.You deserve so much more than survival. You are allowed to heal, dream, reflect, create, and love. You are allowed to be seen, to be heard, to tell the truth, to take breaks, and to take risks. Even if your past taught you otherwise. Not because you are perfectly healed, but because you already are worthy of a life as good as the best. You always have been.Heal not just so you can function.Heal so you can dream.Heal so you can free your destiny from the legacy of trauma.Reclaim your narrative, align with what was always true, and unfold into what is now possible.
