We are all capable of shedding the weight of the past, reclaiming our voice, and stepping into freedom.""- Dr. Christina Donaldson, Licensed Clinical Psychologist ""From the ruins of unspeakable abuse rises a voice unflinching and luminous... I'm Not My Story pulses with raw truth, aching beauty, and grace. This book is not only a testimony-it's an anthem of survival, a lighthouse for anyone seeking peace in the shadow of trauma.""- Cherie Kephart, award-winning author of A Few Minor Adjustments ""Reading this book saved my life.

Thank you for helping me heal.""- Zineb Bouhamidi, trauma survivor ""I'm Not My Story is a masterclass in surviving and thriving. I saw myself in these pages. Swamini doesn't shy away from her trauma, but she doesn't stay there either. She shows the way through.""- Lorena, trauma survivor ""I'm Not My Story allows the reader to cry, release, and breathe.
