A Thousand Small Resurrections

A raw, compassionate, and empowering journey through healing after trauma, heartbreak, and loss.

Through personal stories and hard-won insight, Tammi Gunwall explores the lasting impact of sexual abuse, emotional manipulation, toxic relationships, betrayal, and life-altering adversity-and the courage it takes to reclaim one's voice, identity, and worth.

Written for women and young adults navigating pain, confusion, or self-doubt, this book exposes common grooming tactics, patterns of narcissistic abuse, and the quiet ways trauma reshapes relationships and self-trust. With honesty and clarity, it invites readers to recognize what harmed them, release shame that was never theirs to carry, and begin reconnecting with their intuition-the inner knowing that leads back to truth and wholeness.

More than a memoir, this book blends lived experience with reflection, faith, and practical takeaways. Each chapter offers insight, encouragement, and space for self-reflection, helping readers move from survival to healing, from silence to self-advocacy, and from brokenness to renewed strength.

At its core, this book is about remembering who you are beneath the pain. It is for anyone who has endured trauma, abuse, grief, divorce, or loss-and still longs for joy, peace, and authentic connection. Honest, hopeful, and deeply human, it reminds readers that healing is possible, purpose can rise from pain, and your story still matters.

Key themes include: healing from trauma, sexual abuse awareness, emotional and narcissistic abuse recovery, women's empowerment, faith-based healing, intuition, self-worth, resilience, and personal transformation.
