239 Charlene Madden Rising Strong: A journey out of darkness and a life renewed
/

Charlene Madden has admittedly spent most of her life living in a state of darkness.  After experiencing over 9 years of sexualized trauma at the hands of her grandfather, a decade of domestic violence, and 3+ decades of mental illness and suicidal ideology, she was just 2 days away from taking her life when she attended a workshop where everything changed.  She was able to begin the healing process by rewriting her thought patterns and found her Purpose by turning her Mess into a Message of Hope, Evolution, and Transformation that she now shares with people all over the world.  
Charlene Madden is an author, speaker, Reiki Practitioner and creator of the Ignite Your Life Women’s Empowerment Workshop.  Her most important roles though are loving wife, &  proud mom of 3 amazing children, (as well as being a fur-baby mom to 3 dogs, a cat and 5 pygmy goats).  Charlene is a passionate advocate to ending the stigma for those who suffer from Mental Illness and have experienced Childhood Sexualized Trauma which she has experienced in her own life, and is working on creating a facility that will bring together rescued animals and trauma victims.

3 top tips for my audience:
1. Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional.  Understanding what we can avoid in life and what we can’t
2. Sometimes you have to sit in the dark, but you don’t have to stay there
3. You, and you alone are Responsible for where you are today.  Self-responsibility is the first step to recovery and creating the life you desire.
