Welcome to betrayal trauma recovery. This is Anne. I have Shana Hollisd on the show today. She is a licensed

master social worker, minister, personal growth strategist, and speaker. She is committed to decreasing

the number of people walking around wounded in the world. So we have very similar missions and I'm so

excited to talk to her. As a transformational teacher and mentor, Shana helps people

heal intentionally after brokenness and betrayal so they can manifest the life and relationships

they desire and deserve. Her clients appreciate her personable and practical approach to

helping them extract wisdom from their wounds and passionately pursue their purpose.

Shana is a graduate of the University of Texas at Arlington, where she earned a bachelor's of

social work, as well as her master of science in social work, and has many years of experience

in the fields of mental health and trauma recovery.

As a survivor of sexual abuse as a child and acquaintance rape as an adult, Shana knows firsthand how it feels to walk around wounded in the fog of betrayal.

Today, as a transformed woman, she has passion to help other people reclaim their significance and reach their highest potential.

Shana loves to sing and snuggle up to a good television show.

She strives to live a lifestyle focused on creating impact and creating memories. Her favorite

memories to create are the ones that involve her husband and best friend, Prince Hollisd,

and their two beautiful children. Welcome to betrayal trauma recovery, Shana. Oh my gosh. Thank you so

much for having me.

I'm really excited to be here.

You touch on some deeply painful and personal stories in your book, and I know it took a lot

of courage to write and publish it.
