Episode Synopsis

Welcome to Stop, SIS - a nonprofit dedicated to educating on trauma and trafficking as well as empowering those on the healing journey.Congratulations to our 25th Episode Giveaway winners, Bethany and Olivia!Merry Christmas! May the blessings of the season be upon you. You are loved beyond measure!Thank YOU to all who attended the Stop SIS webinar, where Denise and Rachel provided a sneak peek by reviewing and discussing "Reflecting Ownership", a trauma program (workbook) Rachel has created.  The workbook will be available on Amazon in the coming weeks.In this episode, Denise and Rachel have a conversation about this time of year.  Winter is here, activities have changed and emotions often shift.  Its not uncommon for  feelings of hopelessness, stress, loneliness, disappointment, sadness and depression to heighten this time of year. For many individuals, healing goes by the wayside during the holiday season.Rachel shared that we can bring hope to others by being vulnerable with what we are going through, talking about how Christmas isn't always filled with tidings of good joy; and by being real, instead of pretending.This time of year is a good reminder to check in on people. Creating connections and sense of community is so important to our overall wellbeing.Denise shared the following declaration for us all to keep in mind as be move forward: "I declare I will not just survive, I will thrive!  I will prosper despite every difficulty that may come my way.  I know that every set back is a set up for a comeback.  I am not stagnant and I do not give up on my dreams.  I do not settle where I am.  I know one touch of God's favour can change everything.  I am ready for a year of blessings and a year of thriving. This is my declaration and this is my declaration for you."Trauma isn't meant to be suffered alone.  Thank YOU for being here!Thank YOU to our incredible donors!  Because of your generous donations, lives are being changed and positively impacted in ways you may not even realize.
