About the Book
Letters to My Brown Girls: 4-Phases to a Liberated Life Beyond Childhood Sexual Abuse
Healing from childhood sexual abuse requires more than just telling a survivor to “get over it” or take some medication to “feel better”. You cannot just put her in front of a psychiatrist and say, “fix her” or in front of a pastor and say, “pray for her”. There is no quick fix for mental health. Survivors require information, resources, and practices for healing past childhood sexual abuse. This book serves as that source of information, resources, and practices for progressing past emotional, mental, and spiritual barriers while handling:
- Dating
- Employer-mandated Sexual Assault Awareness Training
- Sexism in a male-dominated profession
- Macroaggressions from co-workers
- Racism as a brown woman
- Challenges with religious and spiritual connections
The A.F.T.R. Framework breaks down the complex healing of childhood sexual abuse into 4 phases of liberation...Acknowledge. Forgive. Transition. Rebirth.
Phase 1: Acknowledge Your Truth
Acknowledge the weight of trapped memories and emotions to lighten the load. The goal is to learn the power of patience with yourself.
Phase 2: Forgive Your Past
Forgive...leave anger and its friends...hurt, insecurity, guilt, and anxiety...in the past. You are ready for a future without anger. The goal is to learn forgiveness.
Phase 3: Transition to Your Future
Transition from Survivor to Victor. The Transition Rule guides you in breaking down and changing your habits. The goal is to free up space in your mind, emotions, heart, and time for you to embrace your new view.
Phase 4: Rebirth
Be reborn into your life with your new truth, new purpose, and new view. The goal is shift your mindset to focus on progression not perfection.
