ASHBURN, VIRGINIA, UNITED STATES, October 6, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- “No longer will those who face divorce be victims of their pain. With the right tools and resources, learn to rise again, from a place of pain to freedom.” -- Author Dr. Dana Watson


Many say that the most giving and wise souls are individuals who may have suffered the most, endured tremendous pain, and have risen again from the ashes of being burned to tap into renewed strength, purpose, and personal power. There’s no doubt that processing an experience, healing from trauma and finding happiness is not only possible, it’s a necessary step toward living the best life.

International Best-Selling Author Dr. Dana Watson offers a guiding light at the end of the dark tunnel of divorce through her collection of real and heartfelt testimony from others who have navigated through distinct situations. Available in Winter 2022, this anthology offers powerful perspectives into one of the most common, isolating and painful experiences in uncoupling and personal exploration.

Life struggle and personal pain comes in many forms, but it is the ability to get back up, learn and grow renewed strength and persevere that sets each person apart. Take a closer look at how surviving domestic violence and leaving an abusive relationship fueled the future of Dr. Dana Watson to empower others to turn their ‘pain into freedom’ through holistic healing from the inside-out.
