When Your Past Is Hurting Your Present

“W.O.W.—‘Write on Woman!’ This certainly is a book in due season. Who doesn’t have a past that affects them, in the present, to some degree? Sue is endearingly transparent, sharing her own past struggles as she evolves into the beautiful strong and vibrant woman she is today. She gently draws you into her own personal realm and envelopes you with caring, sharing and encouragement. It feels like Sue is right there beside you, becoming your own personal strategist and helping you to implement the 21 Steps. She guides you through the pages, helping you to face past issues and, where necessary, gives permission to simply ‘let go.’ This book is all–encompassing and was not easy to put down once I started. I’ll certainly recommend it highly to others as a ‘must read’ and look forward to future releases with great anticipation.”

“We know that we are supposed to “forgive, forget and move on” but sometimes this is much easier said than done. We don’t realize how much hurt we still hold onto and how much it is hurting us in many ways of our lives. Sue helps bring to the forefront what we have tried to unsuccessfully bury and helps us lay it to rest once and for all, deepening our faith and helping us realize that our life can be GREAT no matter what has happened in the past. Until we forgive and forget we can not move on ? Sue walks us through how to apply this to our personal lives. This book is a must read even if you think you have “moved on”. Sue’s passion and zeal for a better life is contagious.”

“What a breath of fresh air! The author writes with such empathy for the reader. The pages of this book are woven with a wonderful mix of wisdom, humor, and compassion as the author shares her own journey from tragedy and hardship to victory and fulfillment. But the book is far more than just one person’s story. For all of us who, at times, feel trapped in the haunting web of past failures, hurts, and destructive thinking, this is a ‘hands–on, how–to’ kind of book. By applying the practical principles presented in its pages, you too will find freedom to move beyond the clutches of yesterday; gain strength to live in the precious present and know bright hop for the future. Thank you, Sue Augustine, for being transparent and for creating such an awesome resource.”

“Whether you are trying to overcome relatively small hurts from yesterday or to hurdle major stumbling blocks from decades past, you’ve found the right book. This is not just another self–help resource; it is a companion. Sue Augustine seems to jump out of the pages and grab you by the hand like a friend who is eager to share something very exciting. Not only does she help point you in the direction of the truths that will set you free, but Sue also walks along with you as she shares her own personal experiences and struggles. Although taking an honest look at ourselves can sometimes reveal things that are tough to swallow, Sue’s warmth, humor, and sincere desire to help others flows through to provide that ‘spoonful of sugar that makes the medicine go down.’ It is very easy to see why she is a popular motivational speaker because her enthusiasm is infectious ? even in print!”
