Broken Across Time

Sue Sexton

Sue wrestled for many years with Major Depression, unable to lose weight, and having a dissatisfying marriage. Despite being a seasoned Psychologist, Sue was not protected from life's pains. In 2015, Sue's life drastically shifted when she was 38 weeks pregnant when her husband moved out while she was at work. Looking back from where Sue stands in 2019, she has excavated the repressed memories of molestation, physical, and emotional abuse that left her deeply ashamed of who she was, and ultimately led her to that pivotal moment in 2015. It was in 2019 that Sue had words pour from her soul throughout an entire week, which created this book to share with the world. If you or someone you love has endured childhood trauma, feels lost and overwhelmed by the pains we experience in this world, struggle feeling worthy of good things, or find yourself going through a spiritual awakening, these poems will stir emotions deep within your soul. Sue wrote these words to help others feel less alone and to feel understood as they face their own inner pains. ."Sue's poetry is both provocative and immensely courageous. I experienced her defy the impossible by mending a shattered soul. She took me on a journey of eternal compassion and perseverance that proves how profound the healing processes truly is." - Chloe Hudson (Intuitive Channel, ARC Reader)"Written with eloquence and beauty! Sue shares her survival of trauma through raw, terrifying, and encouraging words. Such an amazing read of poetry for those who've experienced, witnessed, and survived trauma." - Melanie Vinton (LMFT - ARC Reader)"Every single person alive is walking around with childhood issues and/or trauma, and in most cases, many live out the rest of their lives never taking the initiative to learn how to heal themselves. Sue's is the epitome of taking action to heal oneself. Her poetry takes you on the painful journey of realization of childhood abuse to the healing process of letting it go and ultimately learning how to love herself for the first time. Her raw vulnerability is not only courageous but comforting to those that have experienced similar trauma in giving those hope that they are not alone, and you can heal and become a stronger, happier person." - Shareen Rivera (Author, Ghost Writer, Speaker - ARC Reader)"In Broken Across Time, the author's courageous journey about childhood trauma unfolds in poetry. Sue Sexton's poetry empowers and offers opportunity for healing. " - Nicole Carreon (MA LMFT - ARC Reader)
