From a victim to a survivor to a warrior. But having a story is only half the battle it only tells a part of my history. A mother, a wife, an educator adhering to the realization that having knowledge helps create the foundation and sharing it embodies the dream. Rising from the ashes of my past using it as a doorway to administer my purpose, I aim to not only be a better me but enable others to do the same. Release the crutches of our pasts, unlock the shackles of our nightmares and remove the blinders of our wrong teachings. To feel comfortable being uncomfortable while the new you (me) is unveiled and the shadows of our prior decisions and choices help shape our futures not keep us dwelling in the past or feeling unsure about whatâs to come. I am the generator of my dreams, the flicker of light that points towards faith. Faith, Definiteness of purpose and the pursuit of all that is good in my life. Always choosing to aim to live my (your) best life.
