For almost 100 years, the women in this family held on to secrets. In their minds, it was either life or death; and they chose life, thinking that keeping their secrets would save not only their lives, but the lives of their offspring. Dark secrets that ranged from physical to sexual to psychological to emotional abuse. For some, these secrets were kept even to the grave. Alcohol, drugs, and poverty all played a part in the abuse. And for the women who were not directly exposed to domestic or sexual abuse, suffered in other ways that affected their emotional state. Health scares, self-esteem or identity crisis reared its ugly head early on in childhood. And again, these stories have never been told publicly before due to shame, embarrassment, and fear of how people would perceive them. Finally, after years of keeping silent, the Frazier women speak out! You will hear their voice. That voice of their inner child that kept their secret. That child that has been screaming to be heard. In this collection of stories untold, you get a front row seat of how these resilient ladies adapted to their environment, created a plan of survival, and learned how to live and love again. Through it all...

Jamie Hopkins (aka Jai), Founder of Jai the Author Publishing, is a best-selling author, blogger, radio show host and visionary. In 2014, she released her first memoir, It Is Forbidden: The Untold Story of Child Rape Survival, and has spent a good amount of time and resources empowering others to tell their story and be free from the pain of it. She founded Matters of My Heart, an emotional support program for adult survivors of child domestic and sexual abuse, where she aides in the transition from a place of hurt to emotional healing. Her message is, “My past does not define me, it refines me.” Holding a dual graduate degree in International Management and MBA, Jai has travelled to Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Indonesia and Cambodia to conduct research with government officials and children affected by the worst forms of child labor, including child trafficking. This travel has broadened her senses to different cultures and lifestyles; and has created a deep respect to all mankind, with all ethnicity and backgrounds. The pain of Jai’s past has developed into a passion to help others like her, realizing there are people hurting all over the world. Her purpose in life is to be the voice of the child (boy or girl) who is being abused by someone they know, yet they do not have the wherewithal to verbalize the abuse. Jai declares, “I will continue the fight to bring awareness to what is done in the dark, expose the ugly truths, and create an environment of healing for the hurt.” Her focus now is to partner with organizations with the same mission. Jai strongly believes in partnership. “Together, we can eliminate domestic violence and sexual assault in this world!” As such, Jai is an active speaker/staffer for the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), the nation’s largest anti-sexual assault organization.
