About this site
Jean Dorff writes inside a dance studio—where story and movement meet to shape a new language of healing.

Welcome to the official blog of Jean Dorff—author of Broken Silence and founder of The Empowering Story. This site is a space for survivor-led insight, trauma-informed writing, and the evolving frameworks that are helping redefine healing, voice, and narrative recovery after sexual abuse.

Launched in May 2025, this publication offers grounded reflections, research-informed essays, and somatic perspectives drawn from Jean’s decades of experience in trauma recovery, narrative coaching, and embodied healing.
