Love would heal her heart, her eyes, and her inner and audible voice! Yes, she broke through, found nourishment, and with renewed strength, now purposed because "The Phoenix Awakens"! Koi Nikole walks with you through her experience similar to many who have dealt with others with controlling behaviors.

You are not alone and you must remember your power is by your choice.
