Life is full of challenges. We come up against mean people, unfair situations, heartbreak, unmet expectations, loss of relationships, divorce, job or career loss, death of loved ones, addiction, betrayal, health problems, financial challenges, and more. Valerie has overcome many losses and heartbreaks, but none more challenging than a painful 13-year ride on the Roller Coaster From Hell, as a result of her daughter's addiction and her senseless murder. No matter what obstacles you face, you will find hope in this book - hope that you can learn to stand through anything. "Valerie is an outstanding, inspirational leader and teacher who uses her pain to bring hope to others. She is relatable and draws people in with her honesty, humor, and transparency. I am impressed by Valerie’s comprehensive program, and how she uses The 9 Actions to help people develop hope, and commence rebuilding the lives they desire and deserve!"
