GREETINGS
My name is Jilliann,
and by God’s grace, I am a fully recovered relationship addict. If you’ve been subjected to abuse by a person (or persons) with power over your life, we are kin. If you tried everything to please and placate, gave up your own desires and dreams, only to discover it was never enough, we can talk. If you lost connection with the core of your being, the woman you were divinely created to be, we’re in the same tribe.
You are welcome here… let’s be friends, and let’s be real. God isn’t finished with us yet…
My journey has been one of discovery and recovery and healing… from the pain of a life dominated by excessive attachments to other people, and to my own illusions.
My story is what I’ve learned so far, it’s why I spill ink onto the page… the lessons are too valuable to keep to myself:
Revelations that bring hope
Realizations that lead to healing
Real victory in overcoming – that yields freedom and joy.
These experiences are meant to be shared, not only as a means of encouragement, but because they’ve been brought about in community – we need each other, God designed us for friendship and fellowship.
At the same time, God has shown me…
My identity doesn’t come through another person, but rather, is lodged in my divine calling, the woman He created me to be…
– it’s also true for you.
We’re each designed to play first violin – not second fiddle.
I hope…
…you’ll come along with me on a quest to learn more about God’s plan and purpose for each of us as individuals in our various roles as single, significant other, wife, mother, daughter, sister, and – friend.
Oh, how He loves you and me ~

“It was for freedom that Christ set us free;
therefore, keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.”

Being Unheard Is Unacceptable
When we are systematically not heard in a significant relationship, it is intentional. It is a form of oppression…
