Jyoti is a young, smart, high-performing, American born and raised Punjabi woman. Depression and anxiety were foreigners to her until an uncle from India migrated to the USA and lived in her family’s home. He quickly went from being tolerable to an unbearable tyrant. Jyoti protected herself by working three jobs to stay away from home. His emotional abuse eventually lead her to becoming suicidal.

Find out how journaling, as part of therapy, and later writing her first (of many) fiction books, helped her healing process. Learn about the impact emotional abuse can have on a person. Discover how many ways trauma changed Jyoti’s life trajectory, the support that buoyed her through those years, and what it looks like to be one strong, badass woman, even while living with fear.
