Seeking solace from the pain, she turned to drugs and sex, spiraling down a dark and dangerous path. Men became her sponsors, fueling her addiction while masking her emotional wounds.

"As a little girl, I always love to entertain people and make them laugh.  My family always created spaces for me to do just that. But one day I became this little girl who had no desire to live.  I carried pain and shame that my small body frame was not able to handle. One day I died, and nobody grieved for me.  That trauma followed me throughout my life. Until one day I fought my way to live!"
