I Can Never Repay the Gift
;
I was sexually abused as a child. I carried it around with me as “my dirty little secret” for 45 years.
I always felt as though I was worthless, unlovable, dirty, and had zero self-esteem.
I found at Saprea Retreat that I was so much more than my dirty little secret. I have begun a beautiful healing. For the first time in my life I feel that I am a strong, powerful, amazing woman that has so much to give. I will be forever grateful for the amazing opportunity Saprea has given to me. I can never repay the gift they have given to me. It was truly a life changing experience! Thank you to everyone that played a part of my healing journey!
