Victim — Survivor — Thriver

Trauma happens everyday in numerous ways. When one is hurt, they are a victim. Posttrauma, they become a survivor. This may look different for everyone, but in essence they have not yet been made whole for their injury.

Moving into the mindset of a thriver requires an active approach to choosing goodness. There is so much goodness in the world if we will allow ourselves to accept it. I believe that continual healing is possible for all of us.

What is your definition of thriving?
