Do you like to read books about people who generally know what they're doing and have their life in order? If so, walk away, this book is not for you!
In Leading by Example, Kelsey Quinn shares her personal account of all the ways she's tried (and mostly failed) to deal with her emotional issues after living through child abuse. With unnerving honesty and head-strong determination, she dives into topics like forgiveness, vulnerability, and shame as complex trauma responses come up in her day-to-day life.
"Kelsey's abuse experiences are her own but the resultant feelings are universal to all abuse victims. She has written this memoir to encourage other victims to speak up and own their feelings in order to heal and get beyond their past. And through her feisty, off-the-wall, occasionally funny, but always honest and raw approach, she sincerely leads by example." - Readers' Favorite
