After being held against her will and assaulted by her narcissistic ex-husband, Heather Fotch courageously escapes and embarks on a journey of self-discovery and healing.

 "You have to love yourself, because no one else is going to make you happy. But narccissists don't know how to love themselves. It's a deep-rooted trauma response, and so they look for supplies to make themselves happy."

Heather Fotch is a female entrepreneur who started her quality Imaging Solutions company roughly 20 years ago. She is also a domestic violence survivor and a volunteer with the Italian Greyhound Rescue Foundation. She has a passion for cooking and is involved with a few professional women's groups.

Heather had just moved into a new home with her husband of 18 years, hoping for a fresh start. Little did she know, she was about to experience a vicious assault by her husband, a man with narcissistic personality disorder. She eventually came to understand the tactics and abuse she had endured for the previous 15 years, and her life began to change that night. She finally found the courage and strength to seek help and break free from the prison of her own marriage.
