About this ebook

Marcia Pires experienced the pain of rejection from a young age. Years later, she faced emotional, sexual, and physical abuse, which left visible scars and deep marks on her soul. In an attempt to escape the suffering, she made decisions that trapped her in an even more painful cycle, leading her to believe that her fate was sealed by her wrong choices and the abuse she suffered. But her story does not end in pain. Through faith, Marcia found the strength to rebuild her life and turn her past into a testimony of resilience. Today, her greatest desire is to use her experience to help women of all ages who are facing or have faced similar situations. From Wound to Scar is an invitation to reflection and hope—a testament that, despite the scars of the past, it is always possible to start over and discover a new purpose for living.
