She opens up about childhood trauma, inherited shame, teen pregnancy, marital violence, motherhood, and the silence that can keep families protecting what should have been named.Michelle also shares the full-circle moment of talking with her dad before publicly revealing her childhood trauma. Central to the story is the loss of her daughter, Maddie, a grief that transformed Michelle’s view of faith, purpose, and healing.
