Life After Trauma

04/17/2025

It’s not a technique. It’s not a trend. It’s a return. A return to the truth of who you are before your society and culture told you otherwise.

Principle-Based Living isn’t about adding more—it’s about subtracting the noise. It’s the understanding that your life is created from the inside out—not by your circumstances, titles, trauma, or roles.

You stop chasing healing and start realizing you were never broken. You stop performing and start showing up as yourself. You stop fearing feelings and start trusting yourself.

Principle-Based Living is a path to freedom.

“Resilience starts within you.”

“People talk about resilience like it’s something you build, something you have to earn. But resilience isn’t given—it’s already inside you. It’s the part of you that’s still here, still standing, after everything you’ve been through. You don’t need to find it—you need to trust it. The next time life throws a challenge at you, remember this: You are not your circumstances. You are not your past. You are the force that rises, adapts, and moves forward. So stop looking for strength outside of yourself. Resilience starts within you. Own it.”

How Do You Know If Your Coach Is the Right One?

Sydney Banks said it best—when choosing a mentor, ask yourself:

✅ Are they well-balanced?
✅ Do they live with happiness and clarity?
✅ Do they embody the quality of life I aspire to?

If not, keep moving. Because the right coach doesn’t just teach—they live what they share.

Imagine going at life with the right guidance, support, and mindset to get there. That’s where I come in. I help clients elevate their game, shift their mindset, and step into their full potential.

📩 DM me now, and let’s get to work.

Excerpt from the Missing Link by Sydney Banks, Selecting a Teacher.

There are so many teachers in the world and so many theories about life. When selecting a teacher, ask yourself…
• Is my teacher a well-balanced person?
• Is she or he happy?
• Does my teacher reflect and demonstrate the quality of life I desire?

If the answer to any of these questions is no, move on in your journey. Otherwise, you may become one of the blind, led by the blind.——

It was an early morning for me, but it was well worth it!! I traveled to Africa today for a Q&A about how to have a happy life when your circumstances are terrible.  

The 3P in Africa Team began in December 2022 with only the Nakivale Refugee Camp in Southern Uganda. In a short period, this has quickly expanded to more programs in Nakivale (the oldest refugee camp), Kakuma Refugee Camp (the largest refugee camp in the world), and many other projects in Kenya, Northern Uganda, and Congo.

With help from Harry Derbitsky, Jim Beck, Mark Williams, Shailia Stephens, and others, the “3P in Africa” currently has 13 African and non-African 3P Educators and 15 projects, and there is a high demand for more.

Why Your Support Matters:
 
You support the efforts and help build the connections needed to continue making this transformation possible in other villages. Your support is not just appreciated; it’s essential to the cause.  
 
Your generous donation at the link below can make a world of difference. You directly support our African team in continuing their essential services by contributing at  https://www.gofundme.com/f/3p-nakivale-alcohol-department  
 
 Let’s come together and support a future where every community can thrive.

The Many Mansions 45th Anniversary Celebration was a hit.

Thank you Kace and Mike (pic 3) Lauren, Director, Individual Giving (pic 4) and Sage (pic 5) for the support and helping make the opportunity to speak happen.

Met some amazing people and learned about a wonderful organization when you consider places to donate.

Having a place to call home, gives you a safety to fully engage in life.

Founded in 1979, Many Mansions got its start as a rental assistance program. Today, Many Mansions provides permanent affordable rental housing to 1,900 residents (including 450 children), across twenty-one communities.

I invite you to think about the ripple effect of this work. The homes they provide aren’t just structures—they are the foundation for transformation for our residents. We are building more than homes—we are building futures, one individual, one family, and one dream at a time, and we’d love your help.

Thank you.
