You’re not alone — and you’re not speaking into a void.

I’m Dani — a mom, professional, survivor, and advocate who’s lived through abuse, and the aftermath of the systems that too often fail those experiencing abuse. When you make it through that with your livelihood, your health, and your child, you learn: you can rebuild anything.

****This is a space for everyone — survivors finding their voice, supporters learning how to help, and professionals in law, therapy, medicine, education, and finance who want to become part of the solution.****

Together, we’re building a community web of awareness, accountability, and change — where every shared story (“Dicho”) plants truth and grows understanding.

Because the only way we change the system is by starting with the truth — ours. 🌱

🌼Sample Dichos

"Just because I was silent and afraid, didn't mean I wasn't learning and growing stronger by the minute." -- Anonymous Mom 41

To every mom still walking on eggshells -- know this: peace is not a luxury, it's a right - and the courts cannot secure that right for you. Each day, pick one thing to claim your peace - wait on the text reply or email, set the boundary by bringing a friend and witness. Learn to care for yourself. Each act is a legal and emotional footprint towards peace and standing on solid ground, surrounded by others who finally see your light. -- Lawyer who believes the system must do better

...paraphrased: I was so hung up on keeping the family together I didn't see how broken I'd become, how a broken mom is a broken family.. Now ten years on the other side, I am a new woman who is conscious of every choice I make, modeling to my children what it means to work at being healthy and strong daily and discerning about those I give my energy too. -- Morgan S.
