Pushing forward to pay it forward!!!!!!!!

Pushing forward with our dreams to share hope with others and to pay it forward.

After learning about the abuse of my daughter, I knew without a shadow of a doubt there was a greater purpose for my life and her life. Sexual abuse healing has a plethora of layers to peel back and a multitude of complexities that often are never addressed. We want to be part of the solution and help meet the unmet needs of victims and their families. My family has traveled forward on our path of healing, but clearly the journey continues. We have reached a crossroads where the path has a fork in the road. Our decision is to bring a message of hope for others who have experienced the traumas of sexual abuse. My daughter, a Warrior Princess, and I want to share this message of hope. Together, we are embarking on a journey of taking our message on the road as public speakers. This goal and ambition has become a fundamental part of why we are here on this earth and the path we have chosen post abuse.

We all have experienced betrayal at some level in our life time. The betrayal we experienced was profound and temporarily paralyzing. Today, we have been set free and choose to help others find this freedom. The caterpillar metaphor is extremely symbolic because there are moments in every one's life where one feels trapped in a chrysalis, unable to move in any direction. In our case, there was a period of time where the wings had to grow before we could break free from the chrysalis and fly free like a butterfly. Our wings are fully formed; our hearts have experienced healing and our message is hope.

This message of hope we want to bring to other survivors and to parents/guardians of survivors is unique because this message is coming from a mother and daughter team. Typical of all great endeavors, there are obstacles to overcome. The biggest obstacle we are navigating around is the need for funding to take our message across the country. This post is a request for help from anyone who feels in their heart this mission is a worthy cause. We would like to invite you to visit our GoFundme link if you have a heartfelt desire to assist us. We are grateful for any and all contributions and promise to make a difference in the lives of sexual abuse victims.

With warm thanks,
Janeen and Arianna

When I look at this picture I just can't fathom that anyone would
conceive to sexually abuse this precious child.

Erin Merryn is a survivor who is pushing to get

 Erin's Law Passed in every state

My daughter and I had the wonderful opportunity to meet her 4 years ago and have been inspired by her bravery and important work she is doing to break the silence around sexual abuse.

Sunday a day of reflection and more healing

After reading the amazing courageous actions of Tim Ballard with Operation Underground Railroad,
I was breathless. The pain, agony, suffering and trauma these children experience as trafficked souls
is unconscionable. As I continue to work to be part of the solution for sexual abuse awareness, I
would like to encourage you to read the mission work of Operation Underground Railroad.
Minimally, consider a donation. It can make all the difference in the world to a child in slavery.

The wounds to my soul are so very deep. It is difficult to describe the deep cuts into my
heart when I think of what my daughter endured. Like so many innocent children, there are
no words to measure the pain and betrayal they experienced as victims of sexual abuse. The person
who promised to love and protect you chose to violate and harm you.   The feeling of helplessness
still erupts despite the years that have elapsed.  However, we continue to process and climb the
mountain to wholeness.   

Hopeless to hope!

We will love fearlessly and not allow these experiences to rob us of living fully now.

My Warrior Princess Denial perpetuates SEXUAL ABUSE

Unveiling the deceit!

Our mission to expose the truth, lift the shame and empower victims.

One of the most difficult parts of this journey has been the incredible denial cloaked around the 

perpetrator's family members.

Amazingly, his memories are glorified and he is lifted up as some sort of hero and awesome father.

His family and friends recall him as a great man.

They don't know the truth.

He stole innocence from my daughter, but she is a Warrior Princess

He stole trust from me.

He tried to kill her soul,

He tried to kill me, literally.

He was a sociopathic pedophile.

He lied and you are all living in denial.

The hero is my daughter, the true Warrior Princess.
