Baltimore Imprint

At the age of eleven Nina White experienced a traumatic event that held precedence over who she was and who she would become. Nina's parent divorced leaving her to deal with the stress of family separation, her mothers new abusive partner, and the stress from her new dysfunctional environment. Nina eventually became overwhelmed from watching her mother be abused, stabbing her mothers boyfriend hoping her trauma would come to and end. Nina would silently carry the trauma of this event with her into adulthood. Later meeting Jeffery and unconsciously formulating a trauma bond. Shortly after pursuing a marriage with Jeffrey that would be filled with infidelity, verbal abuse, and physical abuse. Her search for love, understanding, and growth would lead her on a new journey. A life journey that would leave behind immovable imprints based on her experiences. Helping her to cultivate a story that shows how two people who grew up in symmetrical cultures came to understand love differently. After enduring childhood scars, a toxic marriage, and suicide attempts form her husband Nina would gain insight. Leading her to understand how individuals can endure the same traumas and rise above their circumstances as she had done or become a product of their environment. This new understanding would help her to reshape her paradigm of the Baltimore native that left an imprint on her life. Helping her to recultivate her perception of her past. This new perspective would allow her to grow, recognizing that the things that had happened to her had also happened for her. Shaping her into a resilient, ambitious woman. Who grew to understand that all things are possible and her past trauma holds no precedence in her prosperous future.
