About the Book

Bridgette Diutlwileng was born in South Africa in the early 1970's and falls into a difficult, abusive and dysfunctional life. The abuse that she endures in her childhood teaches her to disconnect from her body, which enables her disconnect from and disown the trauma she endures. As a teenager and young adult Bridgette becomes a compulsive personality, developing obsessions with and addictions to food, reading, romantic and sexual fantasy. In her 20s, she moves through several dysfunctional relationships, and at 28, she finds herself a broken, single mother, with two boys to raise on her own. She had hit rock bottom, and needed urgent help. She then accepts a job in another city and moves away from the dysfunction to save her soul and make some sense of her life. Upon her arrival in Cape Town, she starts to consult a psychologist. This kick-starts a remarkable journey of healing and growth. Having had to disconnect from her body in childhood, she now has to reconnect and unify her being again as an adult in order to reconnect with people and with God, and learn to love again.She later decides to become a counsellor in order to give back the healing she has received, and ends up counselling children and adults who are either going through or have survived similar traumas, and that's where the inspiration for the book comes from.
