“For me, becoming isn’t about arriving somewhere or achieving a certain aim.
I see it instead as forward motion, a means of evolving, a way to reach
continuously toward a better self. The journey doesn’t end.”
~ Michelle Obama
Mandie Brown ~ Survivor, Inspiration, Resourceful, and Leader for others who have been sexually abused.
About us
My name is Mandie Brown, I am a survivor from sexual abuse and sexual assault. I am a grandmother, and have been happily married for the past 13 years. My husband, Curtis has opened my eyes to what if.... He is smart, loving, caring and a strange sense of humor, but yes very funny.
I have to admit even though I do not suffer from abuse anymore, there are still a lot of scars, and times I relive my past. It is why I am willing to share my life story through this blog, in hopes that I can save and help others from their situations and let them know they are not alone.
Mandie's Safe Haven was created out of a deep understanding of the journey that survivors of sexual abuse go through. Our blog aims to be a beacon of hope and a source of strength for those who have faced such traumatic experiences. We believe in the power of community and the importance of sharing personal stories as a part of the healing process.
Our team is committed to providing valuable content, resources, and support to help survivors rebuild their lives. Whether you are seeking advice, looking for inspiration, or simply want to connect with others who understand your journey, Mandie's Safe Haven is here for you. We strive to foster a nurturing environment where every survivor feels seen, heard, and valued.
Above all, I want people to not be afraid, and know that life can change for the better. Most importantly we do not judge or criticize others, and we NEVER give out any information without your prior consent.
Curtis Brown ~ Content Provider, Author, Researcher, Story Teller, and Loving Husband.
I am so grateful to have fallen in love with such an amazing man. He has given me hope and inspired me to be the best person I can be.
To be honest, I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for his caring attitude and belief that life is what we make it.
I am also grateful for those of you that have come forward to share your life's trauma to let others know that "WE ARE NOT ALONE"
Curtis is helping me write my story, as well as children's books and a plethora of other ideas he wants to share with the world.
I wish him the BEST, and am always by his side.
His loving wife...ME...Mandie
"Mandie examined the lamp more closely, her fingers tracing the contours of the symbols. She felt a faint tingling sensation, a subtle hum of energy resonating from the bronze. It felt… alive. As she touched a particular symbol, a small section of the lamp seemed to shift, revealing a tiny, almost invisible latch."

"Mandie emerged victorious, not without significant loss and suffering, but with a renewed sense of purpose. Mandie Safe Haven, now radiating with a gentle warmth, pulsed with a vibrant, life-affirming energy. It was no longer a symbol of servitude, but a beacon of hope, a testament to her resilience, her strength, and the enduring power of redemption. She had faced the darkness, survived, and emerged transformed, ready to embrace the future, however uncertain it may be."
Yes, I am still working on my book and planning to release it later this year,
