“When you are a child in a family that doesn’t function well, you don’t know any better, but as you get older, you can look back and understand who you came from, not from the perspective of the child you were, but with the maturity and wisdom of an adult who knows they have the capacity to grow and heal.”It Begins With Me is author Shauna Spellman’s memoir on how she broke the vicious pattern of her family, got well, started a new life, and used her experience to help others. Shauna wants to share her experience in this inspiring book to encourage more people – even if just one person seeks help and experiences some healing as a result of reading this story, it will be worth it. Healing from the damages caused by one’s family was a long and difficult process, but Shauna shows in this book that it can also be as simple as making a choice. The process began with a choice and continued with the same choice being made over and over again. Our origins are foundations that define us, but we can always define what we want to build on that foundation.It Begin With Me. It can also begin with you.
