I once stood at a place where fear lived in my home and peace felt impossible. Staying was slowly breaking me, and leaving felt terrifying. I had little money, no certificate, and no clear plan—only the deep desire to protect my children and stay alive.
Today, I’ve learned this truth: choosing yourself is not selfish, and starting over is not failure. Even with shaking hands and unanswered questions, taking the first step toward safety is already a victory.
If you are reading this and feel trapped, know this—you are stronger than you think, and your life is worth saving. There is hope beyond fear. Keep going. 💛
