From despair to inner peace.
Lightworker
by Denise Le Gallais
A true story of lifelong depression, a midlife breaking point, and an unexpected shift to lasting peace.
About the Author
Denise Le Gallais is a writer, artist, and athlete whose work is rooted in lived experience.
For much of her life, she lived with depression stemming from childhood emotional neglect. She built a full life - including marriage, motherhood, and career - while navigating an underlying sense of sadness that remained largely unseen.
In her mid-fifties, following a series of personal losses, Denise experienced a profound breaking point, also known as the Dark Night of the Soul. What followed was an unexpected, but life-saving, 3-day spiritual crisis and massive shift in consciousness that lifted her out of depression into deep and lasting inner peace.
Lightworker was written in the wake of this transformation. Denise’s story is a reminder that we are not our past, we are not our thoughts, and that it is never too late to choose a different way of living. At its heart is a message of hope and Love.
Denise writes as an ordinary person who lived through something extraordinary and felt called to share it.
