About the author

My crazy life has taught me a lot of invaluable lessons, most of which I learned the hard way. First, I have a bizarre neurological condition called Sensory Processing Disorder, which has brought a unique set of challenges to my everyday life. I’ve also suffered unbelievable trauma, abuse and loss throughout my life. I was even addicted to drugs for a horrifying and reckless decade, which almost killed me. However, God rescued me and saved my life. Why? Because He had a plan for me.

Through a series of miraculous events, I came to believe that God is who He says He is. He is much bigger and more powerful than most people believe so my desire is that everyone could experience Him in their lives as I have.

What a great read!

I love reading a book that I don't want to put down and it makes me sad when it's over! So easy to read and so informative about Sensory Processing Disorder. I truly believe God has a hand in everything and a reason for why he puts us through the tribulations in our lives. Because He is preparing us for what we will become.
