Ever Faithful to His Lead: My Journey Away From Emotional Abuse Emotional Abuse Begins and Ends at Home
Author’s journey helps women find their own inner strength
July 21, 2014
Kathleen Pooler spent the first eighteen years of her life in a loving supportive family. The next twenty-five years were engulfed in the abyss of two abusive marriages. Pooler rescued herself and is now dedicated to helping other women (and men) do the same.
She hopes to help others find their inner strength through sharing her hard earned lessons in her new memoir.
Pooler is scheduling online and in person talks, contacting nonprofit and community groups around the country to give women reason to renew hope and begin living their lives on their own terms.
“When we claim and honor the strength within, we are able to climb out of the abyss of poor decisions and go on to live a meaningful, peaceful life”
Ever Faithful to His Lead: My Journey Away from Emotional Abuse offers readers insight into her poor decisions and how they can learn from her story. “I want to inspire hope and action for my readers who need to find their own inner strength,” Pooler explains.
She sums up her message in these five tips:
- A loving family, solid career and strong faith foundation do not guarantee a problem-free life.
- We all have everything we need within, but we need to claim and honor our own inner strength to get the life we want and deserve.
- Abuse, in any form, is harmful.
- The very things you think are holding you back from having the life you want can serve to help you find your way to freedom.
- Hope matters, even when you all seems hopeless in the moment.

About the Book:
A loving family, a solid nursing career and a strong faith cannot rescue her until she decides to rescue herself.
How does a young woman from a stable, loving family make so many wise choices when it comes to career, but so many wrong choices when it comes to love?
She must make a decision—face her self-defeating patterns and move on or repeat her mistakes. Her life and the lives of her two children depend upon the choices she makes, and the chances she takes.
