Being incarcerated at 14 and growing up in the system, navigating life came with so many obstacles and challenges. I am blessed to meet so many well-intentioned women who take me under their wing and do their best to help me realize my potential and guide me in the right direction.

Iโ€™ve learned it is a natural human thing to want to reach out, help, and uplift those in need.

This experience is still ongoing to this day. Iโ€™ve learned it is a natural human thing to want to reach out, help, and uplift those in need. Whether itโ€™s emotional, spiritual, or social. Iโ€™ve heard over and over how God works in mysterious ways. He works through those youโ€™d least expect.

Every day I wake up, I decide to be a better version of myself than the day before. Because of the grace and love shown to me, I choose to be someone who can extend that grace and love to others. I thank God daily for showing me mercy and allowing me to become the blessed young lady I am today.
