Overview

We all know the feeling of something small that happens, and suddenly we are overwhelmed, shut down, or flooded with emotions. What feels ""too much"" in the moment is often more than just the present; it is the past pressing in. When the past interrupts the present through a word, a sound, an image, or a memory, that is a trigger. It is the body remembering what the mind tries to forget. In Triggered to Heal: An Invitation to Feel Fully and Heal Deeply, Amanda Ligon, LMSW, courageously shares her journey through childhood abuse, exploitation, and domestic violence. She reveals how trauma lives in the body, how triggers can awaken hidden pain, and how feeling fully can lead to profound healing. Anchored in faith and informed by her clinical expertise, Amanda shows that even the deepest wounds can become doorways to transformation. This book is both a testimony and an invitation to face your triggers, feel what you've buried, and reclaim the life you were always meant to live. Continue your healing journey with Triggered to Heal Workbook: 16 Sacred Practices to Heal Deeply, where Amanda shares the tools and practices that carried her from survival to wholeness and that can help you do the same.

Author Information

Amanda D. Ligon, LMSW, is a licensed social worker, Trauma Support Partner, Decluttering Life Coach, minister, and the visionary founder of No Violence No Victim Inc., a nonprofit advocating for survivors of domestic violence, and Manna's Mission Serving The Homeless Community, her outreach ministry which provides permanent housing referrals and compassionate support for individuals experiencing homelessness, with a special focus on older people. Born from a raped pregnancy and into homelessness, Amanda is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, sex trafficking, rape, poverty, and over two decades of intimate partner violence within a marriage. Yet, her story is not one of victimhood; it is one of divine survival, soul reclamation, and purpose. Faith has been the foundation of Amanda's healing journey. In her darkest moments, when no one came to rescue her, she learned to anchor herself in the truth that God saw her, knew her name, and was walking with her through every valley. Scripture became her lifeline. Prayer became her refuge. And the belief that she was never alone gave her the strength to rescue herself and break generational cycles of abuse. Amanda's work is deeply rooted in both clinical expertise and spiritual truth. As a licensed social worker and advocate, she brings evidence-based, trauma-informed care to survivors of domestic violence and sexual abuse. As a minister, she brings the healing power of faith, Scripture, and the assurance that God is present in every step of the healing journey. She believes that faith and professional support work together, not against each other, and that true healing addresses the whole person: mind, body, spirit, and relationships. She is a proud mother of four (two sons and two daughters), a bonus daughter, a beloved grandmother, sister, and aunt. Amanda has been mentoring youth in public schools for over a decade, using her voice and testimony to inspire courage and healing. She has worked with older people for over 25 years in hospitals, residential homes, nursing facilities, and on the streets, always meeting people where they are, with dignity. Since 2002, she has devoted herself to housing families below the poverty line. As a licensed social worker and advocate, Amanda walks closely with survivors of domestic violence and sexual abuse, offering trauma-informed care and holistic support. Amanda also creates handmade wellness tools, including herbal bath soaks, facial steams, and natural hair oils, through her healing practice Manna's Nature. Her debut book, Triggered to Heal: An Invitation to Feel Fully and Heal Deeply, is a powerful blend of personal testimony, embodied wisdom, and spiritual truth. Her companion workbook, Triggered to Heal Workbook: 16 Sacred Practices to Heal Deeply, offers the specific breathwork, prayer, meditation, movement, therapy, and grounding practices that carried her from survival to wholeness, all rooted in Scripture and clinical expertise. Through her words and her work, Amanda offers a sacred invitation to break cycles, reclaim your voice, and remember that healing is possible, you are never alone, and you are always guided by a God who sees you and loves you.
