What traumas do we carry around with us? We may no longer recognize their weight, but they’re burdensome all the same. Arms full, bodies tired, what energy we have left we spend on just getting through the day. The cycle feels endless. But it doesn’t have to be:

You can put it down
nYou don’t have to carry it anymore
nAs fearful as the new might be
nLook, look deep into your heart and know
nYou are worth it

Divided into three parts, The Soul Knows guides readers through the poet’s personal healing journey from childhood trauma. Each part reflects on the past and works through the challenges of healing, from debilitating self-doubt to grief and pain. These poems showcase how the poet reconnected with herself through therapy, nature, and writing. These are acts of resilience: inspiring and hopeful even in the face of incredible darkness and despair.

Raw and vulnerable, The Soul Knows is an invitation to release the trauma that weighs us down and embrace ourselves instead. Even if we can’t fully let go of the past, we can learn to live in the present, guided by joy and love, rather than fear.
