Is there still beauty despite our shameful scars? How can we let go of our past experiences that keep on hunting us? 

In this episode, Tanesha West shares the most traumatic experience she has ever had in life and the things that urge her to move forward and be a powerful woman despite being wounded. Tune in today as we discover a sexually abused person's struggles in dealing with pain, anxiety, and anger and how someone can let go of the things that are no longer serving her.
