About the Author

Alice Edwards is a wife, mother, and survivor of childhood trauma. Alice has spent much of her life using her first-hand knowledge of surviving trauma to encourage and teach other survivors by volunteering with her local CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) program. Alice has also collaborated with her husband in creating two non-profits. Both charities serve the underprivileged children in their local communities. Alice loves to spend her free time cruising the back roads with the top down in her sports car, rocking out to 80’s music with her husband, son, and her dog. Alice hopes that sharing the story of her struggle, survival, and triumph will build a platform upon which she can encourage others to find the survivor in their own hearts and rise above the darkness.
