Raven Transcending Fear
A memoir about surviving childhood sexual abuse and abandonment, reclaiming your voice, and discovering the authentic self beneath fear.
Raven Transcending Fear is Terri Kozlowski’s deeply personal account of how childhood trauma shaped fear, identity, relationships, and self-protection—and how awareness, spiritual growth, responsibility without blame, and love helped her reconnect with who she truly was.
Why I Wrote Raven
For years, I had no intention of writing my story. Then I began to understand that the experiences I had once wanted to keep private could help someone else feel less alone. My childhood included sexual abuse, abandonment, fear, and the survival patterns that followed me long after the immediate danger had passed.
The book grew from one central realization: what happened to you matters, but it does not have to become the only story you are allowed to live inside. Taking responsibility for your response is not taking blame for what happened. It is one way of reclaiming your power in the present.

Part Memoir, Part Invitation to Reflect
Raven Transcending Fear is both a survivor’s story and an exploration of the beliefs we carry forward from painful experiences. Terri shares the fear, shame, silence, spiritual searching, relationships, and choices that shaped her journey toward greater authenticity.
The goal is not to ask you to copy Terri’s path. Your story, healing, beliefs, support system, and choices are your own. The book offers one lived example of what can become possible when fear is examined rather than automatically obeyed.

Dr. Eric Kaplan, three-time #1 best-selling author
“Terri’s journey from abused, fearful child to wonderfully put together adult provides an excellent road map for anyone to follow to find their way to self-comfort, self-love, and the ability to be truly happy in one’s own skin.”
Bob Unger
“Beautifully written, inspirational journey of light and hope and faith… Terri’s story is one of survivorship and growth, but more importantly, it’s a reminder that each of us is what we choose to be, not just a result of what happens to us and around us.”
