Child Innocence — Healing From Abuse

Healing from abuse is important.

My belief is that no matter what happened to us in life, there comes a time when we need to step up and take full responsibility for our well-being. We need to look at our history and heal all of the abuse, hurt, and confusion one by one. We need to search for a way to thrive — not just survive.

My desire is that my own journey of healing from physical, emotional, and sexual abuse encountered in my childhood and then living my purpose will inspire many others to heal themselves by showing them an example of what is possible when one is committed.

As I progressed on my path and purpose as business coach and energy healer, I realized that working with adults and helping them claim back their power is important, but if I can provide assistance much earlier into someone’s life that would make a greater impact. This is how Irinuca — Child Innocence Foundation was born, to help teens who have been abused. My intention is to provide horse-assisted healing and a loving community so they don’t have to fumble through life not knowing their innocence and worth. I felt that intervening before they get started in life will make a difference to the lives of those children.

The Foundation’s mission is to help abused children ages 12 to 20 evolve from being emotionally traumatized to becoming truly free, empowered, and confident in their future and to know how to achieve economic self-sufficiency.

Right now, I am raising funds to legally register this foundation as a not-for-profit and provide some group experiences for children as early as this summer. A percentage of all of my services are donated to the Foundation, for example 20% of the ticket sales for the upcoming retreat that is based on my story or healing from abuse and discovering spirituality and purpose.

The epiphany that brought me to this moment

In my late 20’s I immigrated to Canada, thinking that if I put an ocean between me and my abusive family of origin, I could escape the influences of my childhood. I would finally be free!

I did not find the freedom I was seeking. Unbeknownst to me, I carried all the chains with me. All the bad words and the ugly labels were engraved in my memory. The wounds of the physical beating still burned my flesh. Ropes of guilt tied my hands behind my back and shame drowned my true voice.

Despite my worldly success I felt unhappy, pushed by life, misunderstood and on the brink of burnout.

I realized that for me to become truly free, I needed to heal. I realized that I needed to go deep inside myself and undo all that had been done to me, to shine the light of understanding in all the dark corners of my subconscious mind, to cut the heavy ties and tend to my deep wounds.

I believe is possible to heal, thrive, live your purpose

Healing past wounds is a priority. No matter what happened to you, there is a path to freedom, purpose and achievement. You can heal.

Thrive not just survive. People who were abused tend to be happy surviving only because of what happened to them. I say go higher, seek to thrive. On this journey you will release the victim consciousness and you will find true fulfillment and victory.

Live your purpose. You matter, you are worthy, your unfortunate situation can be turned around into a purpose-driven business that will help others suffer less or get the things that you didn’t get when you were like them.

If you would like to heal, claim your power or have the courage to live your purpose consider joining the Retreat. Not only you will make a difference in your life you will also be contributing to making a difference in some children’s lives.
