Susan R. Nelson, Trauma Survivor

Taking Off Your Mask... Connecting Authentically

Everyone bears the scars of hidden pain -- a trauma or event that altered their lives. Perhaps it’s a former marriage, a tumultuous relationship, or the loss of a child or loved one.

Whatever the cause, many wear a mask to hide the truth.

Author and Speaker Susan R. Nelson will share her personal story of a devastating gunshot to the head and the six year journey she took to enjoy a normal – and authentic – life.
