On this episode, I sat down with Child Protective Services Conservatorship Worker Tanisha Parham. I share my story of childhood sexual abuse and its effects on not only my family's life, but how it affects so many others. We discuss how to recognize signs of grooming, changes in victims, and resources to report and find healthy methods of coping and healing.

This trauma was something my family battled through for years, but I am now so proud to say I am stronger having overcome it and want to use my platform of health and wellness to show that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. There are ways to find your happiness and fulfillment in this fragile, yet precious life.
