Karla Monterrosa shows you how to heal from abuse and thrive in your faith, family, and purpose.
Karla Monterrosa experienced physical, emotional, and sexual abuses early in her life. She was able to take those negative experiences and use them as fuel to propel her forward for a time, accomplishing personal, educational, and professional successes. Eventually, within the stresses and pressures of marriage and motherhood, her scars became utterly exposed. She realized that her past was beginning to harm her family in the present, and it was then she chose to take courageous steps to heal from abuse—to become the woman, wife, and mother they deserve.
If you’re ready to experience healing from abuse, Unbraided will help you get healthy emotionally and spiritually so you can cultivate the self-confidence and courage needed to follow through to freedom.

Why I Wrote The Book
I’m on a mission to help women thrive as leaders who pursue their
God-given potential and lead lives of faith, purpose, and impact.
Childhood abuse has profound and long-lasting effects that manifest themselves in subtle and devastating ways in our lives. Unless we know it, they remain a part of us, wreaking havoc. Once we are aware, we can begin to take steps to change this.
Healing and breaking the cycle of abuse is possible, and it begins with you. I want to lead you toward the path of healing and give you essential tools to make healing a reality in your life.
When a woman is healthy emotionally and spiritually, she is stronger, more creative, and genuinely influential within her family and community. She becomes an agent of change in the lives of others.
