Hello, my name is Desiree and I am a Certified Trauma-Informed Coach. I have dedicated my life’s mission to helping women find safety, strength, and healing after experiencing post-separation abuse.
As a survivor myself, I know intimately how difficult it is to break free and completely rebuild your life from scratch. Post-separation abuse often strips women of their financial autonomy, their confidence, and their peace. I want to build a virtual practice that acts as a guiding light and professional support system for these women so they never have to navigate the aftermath alone.
Right now, I am navigating my own transition. I am currently living out of a temporary hotel room while pouring my mind and soul into building this business and setting up my digital platform. This week, I faced a heavy physical setback,
a severe Lupus flare-up that forced me to decline a job offer because my body desperately needed rest to heal. Because of this, I am currently relying entirely on credit cards to cover my temporary housing and daily survival while I launch my mission.
I am starting this GoFundMe to bridge the gap. Your donations will directly fund:
• Immediate short-term housing stability (moving out of the hotel into a permanent home/office space)
• Website development and software tools to launch my virtual coaching groups
• Free or low-cost scholarship sessions for immediate survivors of abuse who cannot afford coaching
Even a bee in the autumn must slow down, protect its energy, and rely on its storehouse before it can pollinate a whole new field in the spring. I am resting my physical body today so I can fiercely protect and guide other women tomorrow.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for believing in my vision, supporting my recovery, and helping me build a safe hive for survivors.
