Empowering Prison To Transparency Toxic Shame and Guilt
About Mistie Layne
Prison To Transparency Toxic Shame and Guilt
From medical school to prison behind a horrific cocaine addiction and killing somebody, she now uses transparency to free others of toxic shame and guilt
I am a survivor of drug addiction, domestic abuse, prison and much more.
Mistie is an award-winning speaker, best-selling author, hosts Dare 2 Share with Mistie Layne talk show, and hosts Write 2 Ignite Women’s Empowerment Retreats, where she teaches writing as therapy. She founded the #BethatONE movement which encourages others to step up and share their life experiences with transparency to educate others so we can JUDGE less and MENTOR more.
She maintains a Nuclear Medicine career, placed 3rd in the Next Global Impactor competition and serves as VP on the Chemo-buddies 4 Life non-profit board.
Are you letting your past rob you of your future? Vulnerability, insecurity, anger, resentment and depression led Mistie into the arms of cocaine. Held hostage for ten years, she fell from becoming a surgeon in medical school to sporting black eyes, committing crime and facing forty years in prison for taking someone’s life. Left BROKEN, DEPRESSED and LOST, she found strength to PULL HERSELF UP by sharing the RAW TRUTH’s about addiction, domestic abuse, and shame to IMPACT others. In prison, she WROTE herself into a four step healing process called C.O.P.E. = HOPE, which triggers emotional release of pain, guilt, FORGIVENESS and depression. Mistie encourages to LOVE yourself TODAY! RETRAIN your brain to see SILVER LININGS instead of dwelling on negativity. Find your GREATNESS buried inside under layers of shame, guilt, embarrassment, denial and arrogance and use it to PULL YOURSELF UP. She urges you to ask “who am I here to serve?” Shift your focus to helping someone else and you will discover your anger, resentment and self-doubt will fade away. Stop looking into the rearview mirror and LET GO of your haunting past so you can BE PRESENT and show up in your FUTURE. PULL YOURSELF UP by using the POWER OF TRUTH to liberate you through transparency.
