When trauma collides with spirituality, you get love and forgiveness. Join me in this episode while I chat with Kate Vratsak from Canada.

In this episode, we discuss how she was able to forgive others who caused her a lot of trauma, how you can find light in your darkness, how helping others gives you purpose, and how to begin your healing journey. We also discuss motherhood as a trauma survivor, harboring forgiveness can actually hold you back, and sometimes the best thing you can do is just accept people for who they are by holding space for them. 

Kate Vrastak, is a Motivational Speaker, author of two International best selling books, "Ignite Possibilities and Ignite the Hunger in You," and Mental Health Advocate.

Her passion is to help illuminate trauma survivors to find their voice, become resilient, and reach the power of forgiveness for themselves.  Kate is a powerful role model as she has found forgiveness for the murderers that took her entire family at the age of 13. She teaches effortless processes that allow individuals to grow by forgiving and falling in love with themselves.

F-O-R-G-I-V-E ="Freedom" to let go of past emotions. With an "Open" heart to create self-love and to "Reach" out to receive help. Believe you are a "GIFT" to the world and that your light needs to shine to help others RISE up and follow your "Intuition" by following your "values" in first giving yourself "empathy" then spread that to the world through the eyes of LOVE!
