Judy Foreman is a survivor of physical and emotional abuse from both her mother and father. Her dad – she had to call him by his first name only—was an alcoholic, a bully, and the perpetrator of unending abuse until Judy left home for Wesley College. Her mother could not or would not express love and affection. Judy can’t remember a time when her mother hugged, kissed, or supported her in any way. Only when Judy stayed with a Danish family for a summer did she begin to realize how dysfunctional her family was. But Judy’s journey toward healing took years of therapy and self-introspection. Her new book, Let the More Loving One Be Me: My Journey from Trauma to Freedom, is a testament to her inner strength and her refusal tolead a life of fear, anxiety, and mistrust.The book is available on Amazon and on most other book sites.You can find out about her other books at https://www.amazon.com/stores/Judy-Foreman/author/B00E7GSZ8M?ref=ap_rdr&store_ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=truewww.judyforeman.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/judy-foreman-88a0272/
