Hey, I'm Anita Sandoval
Welcome. Iâm so glad youâre here.

 Is this you? - Youâve spent your life putting others first, feeling stuck in people-pleasing, and wondering when itâs finally your turn to feel supported⌠youâre in the right place.
Iâve been thereâovergiving, staying silent, and losing myself in relationships that left me feeling invisible and unworthy. But I found my voice, reclaimed my identity, and now I help other women do the same.
Iâm a Licensed Professional Counselor, author of Broken Chains, and host of the Empowering Women in Conversations podcast. I guide women in their 30's and 40's to stop people-pleasing, set boundaries without guilt, and build emotionally safe, successful relationshipsâstarting from within.
Because you donât need to prove your worth.
You just need space to remember it.
Want to find out how I turned the pain of failed relationships into the power to create healthy, fulfilling onesâand how I went from people-pleasing to fully empowered?

Broken Chains
I feel that everyone has a purpose in life and mine was recently known to be this one, to share my life and skills, strategies, and techniques on what I have learned in breaking the chains of the cycle of abuse and neglect and on how I became a survivor.
The reason I speak out is to help, guide, and support those that are not ready to speak out publicly or go to counseling. This is your own self-help and growth into finding your own true meaning of breaking those chains of unhealthiness and creating your own healthy relationships filled with love, respect, and trust.
After all, we all deserve it, and it could begin with you becoming aware that you are not alone. There is hope to build your own sense of security of healthy relationships. I hope this book will help you as much as it helped me.
