The Stories We Carry: A memoir about finding your voice and re-writing trauma into triumph (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781922828774)

"Raw, unapologetic, and so incredibly hopeful." - Jonty Bush, Australian PoliticianAt age 15, Jas Rawlinson was a young girl drowning in depression, trying her best to keep treading water against the tides of family violence and suicidal thoughts that threatened to drag her under. For years, she fought to stay afloat, waiting for everything to change... and then, suddenly, it did. But what followed next, was something she never saw coming.In this moment, Jas had to make a choice; to dig deep and find a new path forward, or to succumb to her trauma forever. Determined to take control of her life, Jas remembered the promise she made to herself as a young girl; a promise to one day be a voice for other women and children trapped in fear and silence... and so, one step at a time, she began to re-write her story.Now a global speaker, anti-human trafficking ambassador, and best-selling author, Jas tells her story in full for the very first time. Featuring never-before-shared tales of her private investigations into human trafficking and exploitation, and shining a vulnerable and courageous light onto what it takes to re-write trauma into triumph, 'The Stories We Carry' is the most empowering book you'll read this year. "From human trafficking and sexual abuse to suicide and mental health, Jas Rawlinson is unflinching in her commitment to talking about issues that others won't. This is not just a book about trauma...it generously shares the tools needed to transform your pain into purpose and hopelessness into healing." - Sherry Lukey, International EFT Tapping Expert
