I typically stay away from personnel struggle / self discovery types of books. The way the author switched back and forth between past and present made it easier to stay engaged in the book and go from cover to cover in a single sitting. I appreciated how the other “characters” were brought into the story without it being a “tell all”. The book deliveries a very uncomfortable topic in a very open and engaging way.
Dr. Lynnette aids in accurately labeling, processing and navigating feelings, emotions, and life circumstances with faith/eternal perspective.
“Enjoy” hardly seems the right word to describe such a compelling story about an incredibly painful journey. But I did enjoy reading it. Dr. Simm’s vulnerability about her tragic experiences will enable many people to identify their own pain with hers. More importantly, they will be able to identify with her message of hope and healing
OMG!!! I spent my entire afternoon reading your book….I seriously couldn’t put it down. So many emotions tears, laughter, anxiety…..I think I felt about every emotion reading today. So I started it about 11am and had to stop to go pick up kids from school about 2:45p (and I didn’t want to stop..) I’ve already read about 75% of the book!!! Thank you for sharing such an intimate part of who you are to help so many 💗💗💗. I can’t wait to finish reading.
Dr. Simm has helped me start to come to peace with events from my past. I’m grateful for her guidance, support, advice, and friendship.
What an amazing story. You won’t be able to put this book down. An amazing testimony of a broken girl that walks through her healing process to become everything she was meant to be. I love this book!
I don’t usually read non-fiction so I dont know how it compares to other stories like this but I thought this was an inspiring story! To see how her childhood was ruined and yet she manages to make a wonderful life for herself. The constant struggle with her past to become the person she wants to be and someone others can admire. Lynnette you are a true hero in my eyes for how you over came everything! P.S. you found an amazing man that knows how to support his wife!
Working with Dr. Simm for the past two years has been a blessing. She’s Holy Spirit led, but also very practical. Talking to her is like talking to a friend.
Dr. Lynnette has given clear understanding for situations that were very hazy in my life. She has provided a safe space for me to grow and move forward from painful experiences from my past.
Brought light to how I viewed myself. Moving into a better understanding of my struggles. Giving myself Grace.” She also shared that “To be able with an open mind and open heart a completely naked soul to find grace kindness and no condemnation is truly seeing God’s Love in full display. That initial conversation brought in less than 60min to my life after a decade of affliction. God’s timing is perfect.
