As a former addict I remember a situation where I went to go buy pills.. the house I went to had kids in it and the person i went to buy pills from sold more than just pills, as I’m waiting I’m talking to this little girl who had to be at least 7 was telling me her mom left her there and would be right back… as the person comes back into the room where I’m at with the pills I ask him..” why was the baby girl there?” He said that the mother “traded, her for some black” (if you know than you know) but he said “I don’t get down like that so I reach out to her people and they’re on there way to pick up the baby girl” make a long story short, I sat there with the baby girl to make sure she got to her family member safely and check into rehab that next day. That baby girl doesn’t even know that she was one of the biggest reasons I went into sobriety.. I pray wherever she is that she’s safe… blessed and living a beautiful life.. Thank you for saving my life sweetheart!
Oh my goodness this touched my soul. I’m so proud of you for seeing the bigger picture and healing yourself ✨🫶 you are so strong im still an addict myself but i want to stop it’s just hard at this point in life for me I don’t know if rehab will help because I went to one and it caused me more trauma (I got raped by a woman ) n got out went back to the pills to numb it and now my family is trying to get me to go to another rehab but I’m scared…
I’m sure the inside did for a long time before she found healing! She is gorgeous and most of the time we never look like what we’ve been through! 😰 My prayers go out because no child or person deserves to be violated in these ways to any capacity!
It takes so much strength to tell the world about the trauma in your life . I’ve experienced the same molestation as a little girl . We now are breaking curses with our children . They will never experience any pain hunger or molestation and I’m speaking this over all of our children in the name of Jesus .
It broke my heart hearing how she grew up and the conditions. You can tell in her mugshot as a juvenile that she hardened her heart due to all if that trauma. You could see it on her face. It really breaks my heart.
Most kids you see struggling are running from some type of trauma...I had a very similar story although mine struggle from 5 years old till 42! Still struggling but great full to have the knowledge I have from all my experiences to help the younger generation of boys and girls to use thier voice....
@twinlifebrennanbrady518 Amen!!! I had a rough life as well. Not as severe but a lot of trauma we were told to move on from. But God is good and life is starting to ease up a bit. But I get a chance to be a better example for my two children and my family.
She’s a strong woman, she rose above everything that was meant to break her and on top of that she raised a son with autism and she’s done remarkably well with him as well. She’s phenomenal!!!
I have to be thankful for having a decent childhood, for never seeing the sexual deviance of some grown person, for having a mom that did not indulge in alcohol or drugs, and for telling me how beautiful my dark skin is.For being able to see my dad regularly throughout my life even though he did not live in the same household. I’m so grateful and appreciative. On to other news, I’m sorry these things happened to you ma’am.
Always a dam hater......babbby your beautiful & your here LIVING YOUR BEST LIFE......IM SO PROUD YOU GOT OUT & REMEMBER IF YOU SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING.....ITS DEFINITELY NOT SNITCHING YOU COULD HELP SAVE CHILDREN IN A HOME....I LOVE EVERYONE BLESSED BE & THANKS FOR SHARING LOVE
This is why you should always be kind to others because you never know what someone is going through or went through in life. So many untold stories will change the way you look at life.
I'm in the process of creating a channel to prevent specific childhood trauma caused by abuse, poverty, abandonment...I'm so so thankful that she made it through, God please keep blessing her❤
She from my home town. I knew of her but never knew this much about her. Seeing what she's overcome I'm not surprised she is where she is now. Much success to you
@Missjameekabanks .All blessings and positive energy ✨️ to you, sista Queen. You are truly Victorious. Keep sharing your story❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@MissjameekabanksI have bad anxiety that I’m not enough for my kids, that I’m a bad mother no matter what I accomplish😢. Do you experience that as well?
Not only are these interviews real & raw but the INTERVIEWERRRR he is so down to earth & asks the right questions and dnt be sounding like he judging or shaming. These the best on youtube in my opinion.
@@breakbeatmediavery well conducted. Great interviewing skills. This story is familiar to so many of us. I thank her for sharing her story. Thank you for this platform.
I was on hard drugs for 30 years and I've rattled without heroin and would never could never let that happen to my kids or ANY CHILD. . sick of people using drugs as an excuse. It doesn't make you let somebody abuse your child in that way WHAT THE HELL WAS EVERYBODY THINKING . YOU WOULD THINK THAT AT LEAST ONE PERSON THAT USED TO COME TO THE HOUSE WOULD STOP THIS BEHAVIOUR AND SPEAK UP AND RESCUE HER . HOW COUKD THEY TURN A BLIND EYE .!! ITS SICKENING. AND VILE . IM SO SORRY THIS HAPPENED TO YOU .
The composure you have while conducting these interviews is top tier. Thank you for bringing these stories to life. And I pray this beautiful woman heals, is protected, and increased faith do that God can work in her life and show up and show out !
I just want to grab her and give her the biggest “mama” hug for however long she needs it!! She’s so beautiful and strong, this baby needed a loving mother and didn’t deserve any of this BS😢
That’s how trauma effects the nervous system it can cause you to have body trauma reactions I’ve been studying it a lot I been through a lot of trauma last 7 years but have grown so much from being serious about healing
I’ve told my story many times but never in detail like this & when I tell you my body felt like it was reliving everything like I was right there in the moment & it just came up! My whole body got hot! Made me realize I’ve suppressed so much over these years! But I’m so happy to continue my healing journey for sure! Thank you for the message. Happy healing to you as well 🙏🏾🫶🏾
Man I have never commented before, but I just had to on your interview.I am so sorry sis you had to go through all that. No child deserves to grow up like that. You are brave and strong, thank you so much for sharing your story. I hope it opens people's eyes when it comes to children. I know nothing can replace the trauma you went through, but may god bless you with joy and everything that is good in life.@@Missjameekabanks
🙏🏾 Praying for this Beautiful Black Queen. The trauma she experienced is unimaginable, the healing never ends. The Most High is near to the broken hearted. Thank you for sharing your story 🙏🏾🖤 Thank-you for giving her the opportunity to share her story.
At a time where I revisit your page as a reminder to be grateful. She is me and I am here. I know that I no longer want to be a product of circumstances. Through my disabilities, my domestic violence background. Getting an education that’s served me unemployment. Traumatic childhood. Her story is still more powerful more than most people go through firsthand. I still get it, I just need a chance to heal and change the cards I was dealt. I’m not done till I’m breathless. 🖤
I recognize the far away look in her eyes. She is telling the dreadful truth. This lady is blessed with a high IQ & is so worthy of happiness & success 💗
Drugs have devastated our communities and the children had to suffer for the addiction of parents!! I seen it all in the Bronx in the 90s so many deaths and devastation this story makes me so sad so glad she survived.
Born and raised in the Bx. Brook ave on the 6 line so I understand. So many hit on the tracks while being high. I wasn’t allowed outside too much because of it
People will never understand the trauma that we experienced as mere observers. It's why people have never been able to get me to try their hard drugs no matter how pressured. It seemed like a straight line from trying it once to being on the corner spaced out.
I felt the empowerment in her soul when she leaned back and said, “cum laude.” She is grounded and the depth of her healing journey will benefit so many. I’m honored that she gifted us her story. Much respect.
i worked with children for 17 years b4 i got on disability this video has me crying ., while i’m watching it smh i’m freaking Speechless i feel so sorry children have such a special place in my heart ❤️ for this young woman her childhood innocence was taken away smh i’m so happy for her getting her life to what she DESERVES NOW! GOD BLESS HER!🙏🏽❤️
Most people who’ve seen what she’s seen and been through usually are drowned by their trauma and sorrow She is beautiful and Extremely strong to be standing on her own 2 feet and to be telling us this story just shows a glimpse of her strength she is the rose that grew from concrete ❤❤❤❤ Love and Blessings to her
You are such a compassionate interviewer. I'm in school to be a licensed pastoral counselor and how you talk to her is somewhat how we're being trained to do therapeutic counseling sessions. You're a natural!
@Missjameekabanks you are a REMARKABLE BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. I'm so glad I watched this from start to finish. Your testimony is amazing. I wish you and your family ABSOLUTELY NOTHING but the best❤ God bless you
That's what I said...he has been thee best...I just Thank God I didn't go through what these ladies have been through...And they are SOOOOO STRONG to tell their story ❤❤💪🏽💪🏽
Have so much respect for this woman! She overcame her adversities. This is inspiring for anyone going through or who has been through a troubled past!!
She ended up in my hometown Syracuse, New York… It’s a small world… I’m proud of her for overcoming every obstacle that was thrown in her path to destroy her!!! 💜🙏🏾💜🙏🏾
You made it baby girl. YOU made it. And we are all proud of you! Looking back now when I was young, I realize that some of those “mean girls”, were going through more then I could imagine .
As a woman that went through almost exactly what you went through I can feel and understand your pain! And although my mom overcame her addiction for her grandkids (but not for her three daughters) and is a great grandmother and great grandmother but refuses to acknowledge me being molested by her husband. I have forgiven her for the trauma that her and her husband has caused me and my two sisters for the sake of me. My oldest sister is trauma bonded to my mom and they can’t be apart, my twin sister passed away from breast cancer and I am a 48 year old mother of four that has ptsd and bipolar for over twenty years now😊
I hate yet love her story! Hate that she had 2 go through so much & our system failed her yet love how she came out on top! Praying that you do the internal work to feel good within. You are AMAZING & WORTHY sis 💖
Honey, I am so sorry those bastards hurt you. I wish I could have been there to rescue you. You survived - that in itself is a fu to your captors. You are saving lives. Prayers and healing.
What’s so crazy about these stories is being apart a resident of NY and living just 45 minutes from Syracuse - and knowing how the hood could be like from the city to upstate. I really feel for this woman. She’s a queen, a fighter. God - I want to hug her.
The fact that she sits there & tells her story, then they show her pictures. The look In her eyes. Like omg I just wanna hug her man.. I’m sooo happy for her overcoming all this bullshit. . . Im happy for how hard you fought to get where you are now. Im praying for you. 🙏🏼 🙏🏼
I just love her so much! I’m sorry baby that the world failed you. She’s a strong woman with a story to tell. Her story will save many lives! May GOD forever bless you and your son.
I had 2 children while addicted to crack in the 80's, by my incarcerated husband, who was also a crackhead. A young, black, woman at Stanford slapped me (when no one was there) during labor while i was screaming in pain. Ill never forget her, she took my baby (trying to impress her white peers) she took my child to foster care, for 3 days. That was in Nov 1987. She turned 36 today. Ive been clean/sober since Dec 4th 1990
She's so beautiful and strong all praises to the most high for getting her/ us through the things we've been through and continue to struggle with to this day! Her story is so many of our stories as well, us black girls coming up in Chicago especially in the Crack Era... that shit took us through the worst! The traumatic things she speaks of is my story! Just listening to her tell her story i can see through the face she puts on cause the internal damage is still there despite the brave face we wear just to get through! I'm proud of her! ❤ sending virtual hugs and love sister! Keep your head up!
I applaud you young lady for not only being strong but for taking your abuse and trauma and turning it into the strength that you needed to succeed in life and treat your son better then we were treated. My abuse and trauma is in my past and I used my trauma to motivate me too. I’m 48 now with for children ages 32,31,12 and 10. My oldest two are grown and have their own households and are productive, hard working adults in society. My last two are of course with me and I give them all of the love , compassion and security that I gave their older siblings when they were young and all that I never had
5:37 you can hear her heart start to race. I’m so sorry this happened and so so sorry this is triggering the PTSD. You are incredible and a survivor and you show that anyone can overcome anything.
Her story was so moving that I had to go follow her on IG. I’ve even popped in on a few of her lives and she is a plethora of knowledge and it’s truly amazing to see all she’s been through and what she’s accomplished up to now . Truly inspiring ❤
Idk how I ended up on this channel. But thank God I did. Jesus you are Soo good!! I'm Soo happy she made it out to tell her story. Keep your head up Beautiful!! 💗
I had to take a break. The first half of her story really got to me. I'm so glad I came back & finished watching!!! I'm glad she fought for her life, because of her son. My tooth just crumble. I wish I was in her area. I'll sure make an appointment!!! God made her enemies her footstool!!!! That's what's up!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️💯💯💯
I wish people would stop using the word strong… especially pertaining to Black Women… she is courageous, she is brave, she is an overcomer she Is not strong. Who the hell wants to be strong unless you’re in arm wrestling competition.
🤦🏾♀️😔🥺 this hit different and I jus wanna tell sis " you are loved" and give her the biggest tightest hug 🫂 you never know what ppl have been thru or are going thru....and this is why WE as woman of color gotta come together put aside the little shit and start supporting each other, it's time to unify, unite, show love to each other....we're so much stronger together. I never met this woman but feel so much love towards her because I hear her pain...it resonates
Proud of you baby girl, the journey that you had to go through was tough.. You will continue to heal until the end life is twisted with many different directions ‼️
I just found this channel & this is the first video I’ve seen. As a school social worker of 26 years who’s also worked residential for teen girls & a runaway shelter, and a former foster mom myself, I’m so so sorry you were failed in so many ways. You are a remarkable warrior! Sending all my warmest thoughts and love.
Trappin Anonymous you’re doing a great job! You’re giving everyone their flowers by letting them tell their story..they are being heard letting them know that they are bigger than their past. Keep shining❤❤❤Never be ashamed of your story bc you did what you had to to survive. No everything is not condone but you made it..And I’m sure there are some young ladies who may be in the same situation right now and they need to know they can be great too.… This woman story is breath taking….it’s hard to even fathom. But I have a friend from New York and her story is almost similar to this woman..Now she works with me in the opthamology office..graduated from college and got her baccalaureate starting her group home very soon etc… Just never know the story behind people’s smile.
I just found your channel. I really appreciate hearing the stories of these survivors. You really have a great way of interviewing. Your questions are direct but done with great respect to the survivors. Bless all these people that are able to tell their stories.
Blessing to this women she has inspired me to stay strong and keep it pushing. Her inner strength is unmatched!!!! Your interviews are real 💯 definitely subscribing to this channel...
Im so sorry for all you've been through. You deserved nothing but the best in life. Keep pushing on and know that you can change the world. Kudos to you.
The sad reality is people adapt to thier environment. When she said this became normal to me it broke my heart because that held so much truth. Being exposed to things so young that your not mentally able to process. She was robbed of an innocence she was never allowed to experience. Thinking this is normal leves such a void in your life. Its like your were forced to go from 6 to 20 without the important growth in-between . So much respect for this woman. I pray to god she has been able to get the therapy she needs. She was a victim of adults who not only used her but failed her in every way possible. God please bless this soul. She has so much to offer. A definite HERO❤❤❤❤❤
I fucking LOVE this woman! Bravo! A true force of strength and beauty. I cried during most of her interview. Shared some similar life events, some not at all. But the whole time I'm rooting and hoping for her story to finish w a success and a miracle. And she exceeded even what I was hoping for. This woman deserves everything good. Her spirit is amazing. I cannot find enough words to express the feelings she invokes in me. Her inner power is a force that the hardest parts of life couldn't beat down. Amazing

This made me simultaneously cry and feel in absolute awe of Jameeka. She is a fucking warrior.

GOD BLESS HER!🙏🏽❤️
Thank you queen 🤍
💔
No one would ever know her story unless she told you. She looks NOTHING like what she’s been through & she’s been through HELL..but, God! ❤
Amen
Although I'm a believer, why did GOD allow her to go through hell as a baby 🤔
One thing i remember is my aunt yelling at me to get off my uncles lap. Never understood it till recently.
This interviewer is very compassionate..thank you for being so kind and protective of our Sisters
Most people who’ve seen what she’s seen and been through usually are drowned by their trauma and sorrow She is beautiful and Extremely strong to be standing on her own 2 feet and to be telling us this story just shows a glimpse of her strength she is the rose that grew from concrete ❤❤❤❤ Love and Blessings to her
You are such a compassionate interviewer. I'm in school to be a licensed pastoral counselor and how you talk to her is somewhat how we're being trained to do therapeutic counseling sessions. You're a natural!
I love him! I felt safe and comfortable!
@@Missjameekabanks I'm so glad he handled you well and honored your life story. You are so inspiring!
@Missjameekabanks you are a REMARKABLE BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. I'm so glad I watched this from start to finish. Your testimony is amazing. I wish you and your family ABSOLUTELY NOTHING but the best❤
God bless you
@@Missjameekabanks5yy6
She’s such a beautiful articulate young woman . 🙏🏾🙏🏾 for her healing emotionally, mentally. Just beautiful with a traumatic past.
❤
"I swear this is not a interview this is a Therapy Session" 😢😢 He aint throwing these questions out like an interviewer but more like a Therapist
That's what I said...he has been thee best...I just Thank God I didn't go through what these ladies have been through...And they are SOOOOO STRONG to tell their story ❤❤💪🏽💪🏽
Her story is a true testament that your past does not dictate your future. What a blessing to others 🙏🏾 God turned it around for your favor 🙏🏾 🙌
Have so much respect for this woman! She overcame her adversities. This is inspiring for anyone going through or who has been through a troubled past!!
Just when I thought I had it hard, I stumbled upon this video. Young lady I wish you peace, love, and joy.
Listennnnn
She ended up in my hometown Syracuse, New York… It’s a small world… I’m proud of her for overcoming every obstacle that was thrown in her path to destroy her!!! 💜🙏🏾💜🙏🏾
You made it baby girl. YOU made it. And we are all proud of you!
Looking back now when I was young, I realize that some of those “mean girls”, were going through more then I could imagine .
As a woman that went through almost exactly what you went through I can feel and understand your pain! And although my mom overcame her addiction for her grandkids (but not for her three daughters) and is a great grandmother and great grandmother but refuses to acknowledge me being molested by her husband. I have forgiven her for the trauma that her and her husband has caused me and my two sisters for the sake of me. My oldest sister is trauma bonded to my mom and they can’t be apart, my twin sister passed away from breast cancer and I am a 48 year old mother of four that has ptsd and bipolar for over twenty years now😊
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
praying for you queen. Youre doing a great job.
I hate yet love her story! Hate that she had 2 go through so much & our system failed her yet love how she came out on top! Praying that you do the internal work to feel good within. You are AMAZING & WORTHY sis 💖
😢
Her resilience and strength is commendable......applause to you love and light. May god continue to bless you🙏🏽🙌🏽
Honey, I am so sorry those bastards hurt you. I wish I could have been there to rescue you. You survived - that in itself is a fu to your captors. You are saving lives. Prayers and healing.
What’s so crazy about these stories is being apart a resident of NY and living just 45 minutes from Syracuse - and knowing how the hood could be like from the city to upstate. I really feel for this woman. She’s a queen, a fighter. God - I want to hug her.
I’m just speechless!!! This is what you call blk excellence!!! Tragic to triumph!!!!💯💯💯💯
The fact that she sits there & tells her story, then they show her pictures. The look In her eyes. Like omg I just wanna hug her man.. I’m sooo happy for her overcoming all this bullshit. . . Im happy for how hard you fought to get where you are now. Im praying for you. 🙏🏼 🙏🏼
Mannn she just gave me sooo much inspiration and hope! I’m now reinventing myself after years of active addiction! Thank you for this interview ❤
It’s all possible
Keep going queen 🤍
@@Missjameekabanks Thank you sooo much Love ❤️ Keep inspiring the world 🥰
@@TrappinAnonymous Yes Indeed 👏🏾
I just love her so much! I’m sorry baby that the world failed you. She’s a strong woman with a story to tell. Her story will save many lives! May GOD forever bless you and your son.
I had 2 children while addicted to crack in the 80's, by my incarcerated husband, who was also a crackhead. A young, black, woman at Stanford slapped me (when no one was there) during labor while i was screaming in pain. Ill never forget her, she took my baby (trying to impress her white peers) she took my child to foster care, for 3 days. That was in Nov 1987. She turned 36 today. Ive been clean/sober since Dec 4th 1990
It was the best thing she could of done for you you say you been clean since 1987
Congratulations! Thank you for being strong enough & vulnerable enough to share this with us! I am proud of you!
Congratulations!!! I know your baby is proud!
Happy 33 years clean 🎉
Congratulations on getting clean I too was born November 1987 May God be will you 🙏🏾
She's so beautiful and strong all praises to the most high for getting her/ us through the things we've been through and continue to struggle with to this day!
Her story is so many of our stories as well, us black girls coming up in Chicago especially in the Crack Era... that shit took us through the worst! The traumatic things she speaks of is my story! Just listening to her tell her story i can see through the face she puts on cause the internal damage is still there despite the brave face we wear just to get through! I'm proud of her! ❤ sending virtual hugs and love sister! Keep your head up!
I’m so happy you made it out of that hell hole! You are such an inspiration and so beautiful and really strong. God bless you! ❤
How many of yall remember that one class mate like this? Now looking back it all makes sense and now you're sad?
What an incredible mom, I can’t imagine the strength it took to create this new beautiful life for her son
This had me in tears!! Never judge a book by its covers !! Whhheeeww this was inspirational
🫶🏾
I love that you told her you are proud of her. We all are 💛
Thank you ❤
Yes!!! 🙌🏼 Super Proud of Herrrr ❤🙏🏼
I applaud you young lady for not only being strong but for taking your abuse and trauma and turning it into the strength that you needed to succeed in life and treat your son better then we were treated. My abuse and trauma is in my past and I used my trauma to motivate me too. I’m 48 now with for children ages 32,31,12 and 10. My oldest two are grown and have their own households and are productive, hard working adults in society. My last two are of course with me and I give them all of the love , compassion and security that I gave their older siblings when they were young and all that I never had
5:37 you can hear her heart start to race. I’m so sorry this happened and so so sorry this is triggering the PTSD. You are incredible and a survivor and you show that anyone can overcome anything.
Her story was so moving that I had to go follow her on IG. I’ve even popped in on a few of her lives and she is a plethora of knowledge and it’s truly amazing to see all she’s been through and what she’s accomplished up to now . Truly inspiring ❤
I don’t know her but I love her’ bless her heart It’s so hard to go through so much trauma and not harden your heart. I’m rooting for her ❤️
I feel the same exact way. I do not know her but I surely love her! Such an remarkable, beautiful, soulful young lady ❤️
😔😔😔😔 I could never allow my daughter to go through this.
😢
Idk how I ended up on this channel. But thank God I did. Jesus you are Soo good!! I'm Soo happy she made it out to tell her story. Keep your head up Beautiful!! 💗
Thank u
I had to take a break. The first half of her story really got to me. I'm so glad I came back & finished watching!!!
I'm glad she fought for her life, because of her son.
My tooth just crumble. I wish I was in her area. I'll sure make an appointment!!!
God made her enemies her footstool!!!! That's what's up!!!
🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️💯💯💯
God is good.
🙏
Her story is a tremendous inspiration. God turned her trials into triumphs. Blessings 🙌🏼🙏🏼
My Heavenly Father is an Amazing God 👏🏼
The will of a champion, and grace from beyond this world. It is so important to teach children love, respect and charity for themselves and others.
I wish people would stop using the word strong… especially pertaining to Black Women… she is courageous, she is brave, she is an overcomer she
Is not strong. Who the hell wants to be strong unless you’re in arm wrestling competition.
I am sooooo proud of this young lady!! She is a true survival of the struggle....
congratulations 🎉 🍾 .
You overcame the adversity, the pain, the struggle, against the worst place on the starting line.
🤦🏾♀️😔🥺 this hit different and I jus wanna tell sis " you are loved" and give her the biggest tightest hug 🫂 you never know what ppl have been thru or are going thru....and this is why WE as woman of color gotta come together put aside the little shit and start supporting each other, it's time to unify, unite, show love to each other....we're so much stronger together. I never met this woman but feel so much love towards her because I hear her pain...it resonates
Proud of you baby girl, the journey that you had to go through was tough.. You will continue to heal until the end life is twisted with many different directions ‼️
I just found this channel & this is the first video I’ve seen. As a school social worker of 26 years who’s also worked residential for teen girls & a runaway shelter, and a former foster mom myself, I’m so so sorry you were failed in so many ways. You are a remarkable warrior! Sending all my warmest thoughts and love.
I want to hug her so bad bought me to tears. This beautiful black woman been thru so much.
Her people need to be held accountable.
This was absolutely a beautiful interview. Really gives me hope. Thank you for sharing your story!
Felly!!!!
Trappin Anonymous you’re doing a great job! You’re giving everyone their flowers by letting them tell their story..they are being heard letting them know that they are bigger than their past. Keep shining❤❤❤Never be ashamed of your story bc you did what you had to to survive. No everything is not condone but you made it..And I’m sure there are some young ladies who may be in the same situation right now and they need to know they can be great too.… This woman story is breath taking….it’s hard to even fathom. But I have a friend from New York and her story is almost similar to this woman..Now she works with me in the opthamology office..graduated from college and got her baccalaureate starting her group home very soon etc… Just never know the story behind people’s smile.
God bless!!!!!
@TrappinAnonymous how do I come on and share my story 🙏🏼
I just found your channel. I really appreciate hearing the stories of these survivors. You really have a great way of interviewing. Your questions are direct but done with great respect to the survivors. Bless all these people that are able to tell their stories.
Blessing to this women she has inspired me to stay strong and keep it pushing. Her inner strength is unmatched!!!!
Your interviews are real 💯 definitely subscribing to this channel...
Poor girl. A true testament to strength, to have overcome all of this. ❤
No weapon formed against us shall prosper keep doing your thang queen 💯🙏🏽🙏🏽
Keep up the good interview @Christylezz💯✅
Salute from California
Peace n love
I love this, thank u so much for doing these interviews bc someone needed to hear this.
She’s beautiful! So happy to hear she’s doing good now ❤
Im so sorry for all you've been through. You deserved nothing but the best in life. Keep pushing on and know that you can change the world. Kudos to you.
It's crazy how everyone says the exact same thing about the foster care system, why isn't this being addressed 😢
Oh it continues to be addressed but CPS foster care workers covers the ugly nasty truth up
The sad reality is people adapt to thier environment. When she said this became normal to me it broke my heart because that held so much truth. Being exposed to things so young that your not mentally able to process. She was robbed of an innocence she was never allowed to experience. Thinking this is normal leves such a void in your life. Its like your were forced to go from 6 to 20 without the important growth in-between . So much respect for this woman. I pray to god she has been able to get the therapy she needs. She was a victim of adults who not only used her but failed her in every way possible. God please bless this soul. She has so much to offer. A definite HERO❤❤❤❤❤
Man, I can’t even imagine growing up with memories like this. I would be in therapy forever
When you hear somebody's else's stories, I can't complain, but I'll still never forget or go back.
I fucking LOVE this woman! Bravo! A true force of strength and beauty. I cried during most of her interview. Shared some similar life events, some not at all. But the whole time I'm rooting and hoping for her story to finish w a success and a miracle. And she exceeded even what I was hoping for. This woman deserves everything good. Her spirit is amazing. I cannot find enough words to express the feelings she invokes in me. Her inner power is a force that the hardest parts of life couldn't beat down. Amazing
This was an amazing story. What a beautiful soul you’ve become 😊. Great interview. Best of luck to you both. Take care.
