What Word Chat

Immersed in the profound insights of childhood trauma research, Cendie’s heart discovered a resonance between these findings and her own life journey, sparking a career dedicated to translating and simplifying this research for universal comprehension, cavemen included.


Cendie’s ability to absorb the works of others and effortlessly distill and convey them with exceptional clarity and speed is her calling.


Cendie said: “I act with urgency. I raise the voices from the pages of the research that our tax dollars paid for. I couple that with the stories of the lived experience survivors I meet - that’s what I do and you could do it too.”


Cendie is a gifted communicator who has the ability to make complex information easy to understand. She is also a skilled storyteller who uses her own experiences to connect with her audience on a personal level.


Someone once said: “Cendie’s words become like bumper stickers for the mind, carrying with them the power to transform and inspire all who encounter them.”

First Generation Chain Breakers

In moments of weakness our unhealed childhood trauma subtly claws its teeth in our heels while whispering reminders of those experiences in our ears.

In our own words,

Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are toxic stress inducing experiences and events that can negatively influence how the child EVOLVES mentally, physically, spiritually, and financially.
