Breaking the Cycle: Overcoming Abuse and Finding Inner Peace with April Marie Gaines

Growing up with teenage parents and experiencing domestic abuse firsthand, April Gaines discovered her life mission - helping people develop self-esteem and inner peace through awareness. April joins us to share her deeply personal journey, detailing the abandonment and trauma she faced as a child, and the generational theme of teenage parenthood that drove her to become a young mom herself.

We learn from April how she took charge of her own healing journey, finding solace in massage therapy, Reiki healing, and tarot cards after divorcing her first husband. Determined to provide a better life for her children, she went back to school, earning her GED, bachelor's, and master's degrees. Now, April offers her clients a range of services, from mental health counseling to spiritual readings and energy healing. Listen in as she reminds us of our infinite worth and potential for gratitude, regardless of the hardships we may face.

Co-author of the RISING AFTER ABUSE anthology, April's story is found in chapter #20
