Reflection: A page from my written journal

Reflection: A page from my written journal

This is the season finale of season one Conversations with Desie Maye. I discuss briefly and give examples of how I have healed and grown. I am transparent through my examples of "I am not that same person." What I share briefly is before the healing and realizing I had PTSD from childhood traumatic experiences. Yes, I did those things I mentioned and I accepted my consequences without excuses. I also held myself accountable then and now for my responses......For more discussions follow me on IG @desie_maye and @conversationswithdesiemaye
