Have you or a friend or loved one struggled with loss, abuse, addiction, low self-esteem, or even suicidal ideation? Then this book will ring true for you.
Dr. Liz’ personal memoir chronicles the first 25 years of her life living in abusive environments, how she survived and ultimately found her way into the supportive and caring arms of 12-Step recovery programs. Along the way, she describes for the reader exactly how she survived the traumas of physical and sexual abuse, mental illness and suicidal ideation, grief and loss; as well as her struggles with sexual identity, bulimia, addiction, and more.
In her “How to” memoir, she offers her reader:
- reflections on Prayer, Meditation and Life Lessons
- a Self-Help Resources section
- her daily regimen
- links to therapies, books, programs, individuals and specific products
to help YOU not only survive, but thrive “beyond the WILDEST storms” of YOUR life!
This is Book One of a 2-book series. Life Launch! Book Two (coming soon) will reveal the struggles Dr. Liz overcame during the 2nd half of her life: the suicide of her husband, the death of her father, and being engaged at one time to a man who later became the Butcher of Brooklyn, to become a proud mom of her own teenager, a successful medical professional and college professor, and an international best-selling author.

About the Author
International best-selling author, Dr. Lizette Bataille (pseudonym), was born in the Mid-Atlantic region of the US - a 3rd Generation American born to Irish, Scottish, English and German immigrants.
For thirty-five years she worked in the helping professions: teaching high school and college, and working as a leader in the field of laboratory medicine.
She has published extensively in her professional field under her real name, and has now published her first book, an international best-seller, about her private struggles growing up and living in abusive environments: LIFE LAUNCH! Book One.
By sharing her story of survival and how she managed to thrive beyond her real life traumas, she hopes to encourage others to do the same: break the cycle of abuse, break free of abusive relationships, speak out against abuse and associated stigma(s), and to continue to search for healing, meaning and contentment in life.
