Vargas Eileen

Parallels - surviving the legacy of pain (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Told through the eyes of a girl struggling with the gut-wrenching loss of her mother while forced to live in the unbalanced world of her father as revealed through graphic details and anecdotes. On the surface, this girl's early life was mundane: a well-manicured house, a privileged life, a group of daughters whose father was a doctor and who outwardly displayed a healthy lifestyle.

But the details behind that surface tell her story. It includes a struggle in which, just like soldiers fighting an unseen enemy, she battled the invisible effects of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Codependency, and Depression. And it includes survival-the immeasurable, concentrated effort to finally rid herself and her sisters of the crushing albatross of pain.

This story takes the reader on the harrowing journey of exposing the egregious, despicable trauma created by those people who fail to protect women and girls from the corrosive behavior that causes irreparable, long-lasting damage.

The author gives the reader tools to use to release themselves from a life of failure, hopelessness, impossibility, and despair to newfound freedom of realizing themselves as truly worthy, cherished, and freed.

Autorenporträt

Eileen Vargas, one of six daughters of a surgeon father and nurse mother, grew up in Hialeah, Florida. After her parents' divorce, she attended a series of parochial schools. Moving frequently throughout her adolescence, she graduated from Miami Beach Senior High School. Vargas later graduated from the University of Miami with a Bachelor's degree in Journalism/Broadcast Media. Her subsequent career path took her, quite literally, all over the world. In her early career as a real estate broker, Vargas had the opportunity to witness the transformation of South Florida into a world-class living and business environment. Later pursuing a role as an educator in Sarasota County, Florida, she taught high school Honors English and English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL), with an endorsement as a Reading Specialist. She is also a graduate of the Leadership Institute near Washington, D.C. Her work has also taken her overseas. After living and operating her business in Portugal for almost eight years, Vargas moved to Nansha, China (Guangdong Province). There, she worked as a support for classroom teachers at a newly opened high school. Later, she was tapped to teach International Baccalaureate (IB) English at a high school in the Kingdom of Bahrain. She has spoken to audiences in the United States and internationally about family issues. Vargas's travels have allowed her to visit the continents of North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and South America. Her passion for adventurous journey has taken her to more than 42 countries, including extensive travel throughout the United States. She loves meeting people, dancing, foreign films, cooking, animals, scuba diving, working out, and plainly loves learning about all things. In addition to writing, Eileen works with her husband, Robert "Bobby" Heisey as a financial coach with Primerica. They enjoy life in Jensen Beach, Florida with their rescue Yorkshire Terrier, Layla.
