As a survivor of physical, sexual, mental, and emotional abuse, I openly share my story of pain and healing. I am available to speak to your school, group, or organization about my experiences, how my life was/is affected by the past (teen mom, teen wife, etc.), and how I’ve found grace and healing in the aftermath.
