We talk to a Christian author, Debra L. Butterfield, who broke barriers: from being a woman in the Marines in the 70s to breaking the silence as a mother who learned of sexual abuse within her family. This inspirational woman, who didn’t start writing professionally until she was 45, now publishes non-fiction, stories, and novels to help others through their most painful struggles, prompting readers to ponder deep questions about love, passion, purpose, and self-worth. Her own resilience offers a message of hope, empowerment, and personal growth.
