Writer and therapist Sahaj Kaur Kohli grew up knowing exactly what it means to straddle multiple cultures at once. Like many children of immigrants, she has often found herself plagued by questions: Can I establish my own values and embrace where I come from? Is prioritizing my mental health really rejecting my culture? How do I set boundaries and care for myself when family and community mean everything? Even after becoming a therapist herself, she saw those same gaps in the mental health world, leading her to wonder, like so many children of immigrants: what about us?

The Shatter That Called Itself an Unraveling is not a guidebook, a solution, or a roadmap. It is a soft dismantling of the scaffolding we call identity—a poetic meditation on the myth of coherence, the architecture of memory, and the quiet unraveling that begins when we stop performing who we think we are.

Unspoken Wounds: Healing Childhood Trauma Through the Lens of Culture, Identity & Belonging is a powerful, affirming book for listeners who never saw themselves represented in traditional healing narratives. Written for people whose trauma was shaped by cultural silence, family loyalty, systemic oppression, or generational pain, this book offers a deeply compassionate path toward healing. If you grew up in a home where emotions weren’t safe, where love had conditions, or where survival came before softness, this book will speak to your soul.

Surrendering who you think you should be to discover who you are. Authenticity is a word we hear a lot today. We want to be true to ourselves. We want to define ourselves and count for something significant, being someone unique. But what happens when we’re unsure of who we really are? Are we good enough? Do we measure up to others? Do we even like ourselves? Everyone is searching for security, significance, and identity - it’s a human quest. We gravitate toward finding security and identity in our job, education, relationships, money, talents, or things.

We’ve all encountered situations in our lives that can leave us feeling defeated. A child that’s gone astray, a tumultuous marriage, an unforeseen betrayal, abuse, failure in our jobs or ministry, a sickness, the unexplainable loss of a loved one, or even living with the regret from decisions we’ve made or opportunities we’ve failed to maximize. If we are not careful we can allow the baggage of rejection, anger, fear, pride, and unforgiveness to take root and fill our hearts. God never intended us to live life this way. He created us to be victorious. He created us to reign.
