Fairly Bruised but Far from Broken by Tyler D. Roy expédition NEUF

Tyler D. Roy hated the idea of being a single mother. Coming from a loving family and two-parent home, she knew what "ideal" looked like for her. Never having failed at anything before, Tyler became terrified once she was no longer sure of the solidity of her marriage. When she discovered a love note in her husbands car, she felt sick but tried to dismiss it. It was only after an even more heartbreaking discovery that she realized how truly broken her marriage was.

But Tyler never succumbed to the feeling that she herself was broken. Her husband had betrayed her. She inevitably questioned herself about what she could have possibly done differently to sustain the marriage but none of this meant that she was not worthy of love and respect. Her journey out of the marriage was painful and along the way, she faced her own shortcomings, distortions, and contributions to the demise of the union. Ultimately, it was worth it-for herself, her children, and those she chooses to love.

Now a clinical therapist, Tyler impresses this truth onto her clients, and she has an important message for the women who fill the shoes shes walked miles in: you are not alone, you deserve better, and your strength can help you rebuild your life.
