Vivica Keyes was soundly sleeping one night when the sound of breaking glass suddenly awakened her at 3:00 a.m. While inspecting her broken kitchen window, she came face to face with an intruder. Alone and terrified, Vivica fought off the intruder and called 911. Today’s podcast is an intense conversation about life since that fateful evening several years ago.
Vivica wants everyone to know how to deal with their trauma as well as teach all of us proven methods to help those who have been through traumatic experiences of their own. True freedom can be experienced even after going through tragic circumstances if you’re willing to pursue the right path to healing and wholeness.

Key Takeaways
1) It’s impossible to experience freedom from traumatic events unless you’re willing to honestly face them and replace the memories with a different perspective.
2) One of the greatest things we can do to minister to someone who has been through a traumatic event is to become a great listener for as long as it takes for them to feel like they are heard.
3) Time doesn’t necessarily heal all traumatic wounds. It takes a lot of conversation and even counseling to embrace healing and wholeness.
4) Vivica has taken what was meant for harm in her life and turned it for good as she helps folks who’ve been through traumatic events. She also offers wisdom and advice for anyone wanting to serve those who’ve experienced life altering events.
