My Breakthrough Moment Happened at the Saprea Retreat
;
My breakthrough moment happened at the Saprea Retreat. The experience helped me reflect on the relationships I had in the past and what I want for myself in the future. I know how to better cope with triggers and how and when I need to practice self-care.Â
The retreat helped me become more confident with my own feelings and more open about what I want in life. I’m engaged to be married to a great man who looks out for me in ways I could have never imagined. My life is improving, even if there are still challenges.
