Tweetable Quotes: “I believe that I did have relationships with people who were mentally abusive, and I believe I was sometimes too. Because when I was fighting back, I was using this really nasty language because it’s how I knew I could protect myself, but I didn’t like it. Deep down I knew that it’s not who I am, and I don’t want to be that person.” – Beata Seweryn-Reid “Ladies, if something is wrong in your life when you are not sure what is going on but deep inside, you do know that it’s not right for you, and it’s not healthy. You have to speak up and be seen.” – Beata Seweryn-Reid   You can connect with Beata through her websitehttps://beatalifecoaching.com/ ( https://beatalifecoaching.com/) Surviving to Thriving is brought to you by Knight Protection Services.
