From The Pit - Paperback

by Gail James (Author)

There are moments in our lives that are surreal. It's as though you're having an out-of-body experience. Your senses are elevated, and everything seems to move in slow motion. You may notice and even remember the little details from prior encounters. I experienced these things and more during one of the most frightening moments of my life.

Sometimes, we may be caught up in a strength paradox and somehow forget two powerful tools to help us navigate life and relationships: wisdom and courage.

You must have the wisdom to understand, acknowledge, accept, and view situations objectively. In this book, Dr. James shows how courage is necessary to keep moving forward despite the pain and trauma of your past and how to get from the pit to the palace.
