Unbroken: How I Remembered, Unraveled, and Returned Home to Myself
This is often how real awakening begins—not through meditation cushions and incense, but through chaos, breakdown, and raw survival.
For years, Gabriella lived in survival mode—disconnected from her body, pushing through life, unaware that unprocessed trauma from childhood sexual abuse still lived inside her. When the memories began to surface, they didn’t come in words. They arrived through sensations, anxiety, physical pain, and emotional overwhelm. Her body had been speaking all along.
This is the story of what happened when she finally began to listen.
Told with unflinching honesty and deep spiritual insight, Unbroken weaves together trauma healing, plant medicine, nervous system regulation, and the sacred unraveling of shame. It’s not a story of fixing—it’s a story of remembering. Of reclaiming truth. Of releasing what was never hers to carry. Of learning to trust the wisdom that was always there.
More than anything, this book is a love letter—to the younger self who survived, the present self learning to live, and the reader who knows there’s something more waiting for them too.
If you’ve ever felt like your story was too messy, your healing too nonlinear, or your pain too much—this book is for you.
You were never broken.
You were just waiting to be heard.

This book is a true testament to the human spirit. I deeply appreciated the author’s rawness and courage in sharing such a personal story. While her experience echoes what many have faced and continue to face, it’s through her vulnerability that others can feel less alone.
If you’re hesitant to read this because you fear the content might be too graphic, rest assured, the author handles it with great care. She includes brief flashbacks that give just enough context without lingering on painful details.
What touched me most was her fighting spirit and her journey of learning to sit with her emotions (especially the shame) and let them move through her without judgment. She’s honest that it took a lot of work to reach that place, that in the beginning, it was unbearably painful, confusing and chaotic. She emphasises the importance of having support or tools to help along the way. The resources she includes in the book are a beautiful reflection of that care. Through her process, she finds trust, acceptance, and groundedness. A deeply inspiring book for anyone who’s walked a similar path and is on their own journey toward wholeness.
