It's almost like she had something to prove, like i. I'm not going to let this go like I want.
Imagine growing up in foster care, navigating the challenges of a youth correctional facility, and still finding the strength to transform your life. That's the incredible journey of Alia Kruz, who sits down with Festus Ezeli in this episode of 'Rebuilding the Beast'. Born in Bogota, Colombia, and adopted into a family in Fargo, North Dakota, Alia's path was anything but straightforward.
From Catholic school to group homes and eventually a youth correctional facility, her story is one of resilience and determination. Despite facing drug addiction and teenage pregnancy, Alia turned her life around through acting, producing, and ultimately founding Bail Bag, a company dedicated to providing fresh clothing to those in need. In their candid conversation, Alia and Festus discuss the flaws in the adoption system, the societal stigma surrounding drug use, and the transformative power of education.
Alia's story is a powerful reminder that no matter where you start, it's possible to rewrite your own narrative. Tune in for an inspiring episode that highlights the strength of the human spirit and the impact of kindness and self-worth.
