Overview

WHAT IF YOU DISCOVERED THAT YOU HAD MORE POWER THAN YOU EVER IMAGINED FOR EMBRACING THE LIFE YOU LONG FOR? Words create worlds. Whether it is the mom speaking to her child, the speaker motivating a crowd, or the voice inside our own heads, words greatly influence how we see ourselves and the world around us. For much of his life, Travis secretly battled with the destructive narratives born out of childhood sexual abuse. Living under the weight of believing in words like worthless and unlovable, he struggled to embrace joy and peace while battling debilitating anxiety, substance abuse, a suicide attempt, and, what he calls, a series of painful train wrecks of poor choices. We Are All Fireflies is about: -awakening to the narrative, or story, we all carry inside us. -learning to defeat destructive and limiting beliefs born out of past trauma. -finding our true selves and learning to believe in, and embrace, our best life. YOU CARRY ALL THE LIGHT YOU WILL EVER NEED TO ILLUMINATE ALL THE DARKNESS YOU WILL EVER FACE. Unlike a lot of personal growth and self-help books, Travis does not paint the steps of his journey as easy or without struggle. Rather, he goes into detail as he shares the internal battle with fear, shame, and anxiety that plagued him for much of his life. With an inspiring level of vulnerability, you will follow Travis, not only on the path that led to his ultimate freedom and healing, but through the missteps and mistakes he made along the way. He truly shines a light into his darkness in hopes that others may endure less pain and setback in their own journeys. - Kary Oberbrunner, Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author, and CEO of Igniting Souls Publishing Agency

"We Are All Fireflies is a blueprint for narrative-based coun- seling, not only for counselors but coaches and individuals as well. Written in a way the average reader can understand, with gripping stories and real-life examples, it will keep your attention while begging for you to look deep into yourself. Travis lays the groundwork for personal revelations and heal- ing from past wounds that you may not have truly recognized before. The concepts shared in his book are going to change the way you examine your thought processes, and that could be life changing. -Katy Seale Travis engages with tenderness and rawness, drawing one into stories of humanity that uncover moments and feelings with courage few enter personally. But he doesn't leave it there. He invites us to journey with him into slivers of brokenness and oceans of healing that transcend our past stories and move us into creating new ones. We Are All Fireflies will inspire us to live abundant, present lives lit by lights of a hopeful future. -Karen Kang Creative Empowerment Coach ""Out of our darkest times comes our greatest achievement."" Travis White captures the essence of this statement in We Are All Fireflies, a gripping story of childhood trauma. By shar- ing the challenging experience of living bound by his past, Travis whole-heartedly captivates readers with his personal testimony of courage, healing, and redemption. From the depths of darkness to finding light in his dreams, Travis uses his inspirational voice to spin hope into the heart of others. As a tool to help readers overcome limiting beliefs, this book reminds us that we do not have to do this journey alone and the past does not have to define us. -Author and Wellness Educator, Hope Flansburg As a counselor, I recognize the power of being a wounded healer and knowing our own story so we can help others. When we allow ourselves to see our unconscious-the pain, the anguish, the despair-we find our true selves in the process. This book resonates with my novel, The Beckoning Rooms, in that the pro- tagonists all must go through a grueling process of discovery to heal and know who they are. Travis does this in his journey. Healing is all about mindset, and Travis's book will help us make the adjustments in our thinking to heal the wounds of the past and enable us to move forward to a freer, brighter future. The best thing is, with counseling to help, you need not do it alone. Travis's message will bring people to recognition, acceptance, empowerment, and forward movement despite the memories and pain of the past. My motto is let's get this life back on track, and I believe We Are All Fireflies will help readers do just that. -Karin Brauner Counselor, Supervisor, and Coach at www. karinbrauneronline.co.uk.Author of 20 Self- care Habits: Develop Your Strengths, Use Your Resources, and Improve Your Life and Relationships, and The Beckoning Rooms: Deal with Them or they will Deal with You. A unique blend of counselor and coach, Travis takes the reader on a healing journey with We Are All Fireflies. If you ever find yourself fortunate enough to sit across from him in a coffee shop, you will be enlightened. Travis is in the busi- ness of changing lives by changing stories. Through his brave vulnerability, he walks you through a clear process for lasting transformation. -Brenda A Haire, Author of Save the Butter Tubs!: Discover Your Worth in a Disposable World."
