Monique Lisbon: Turning Pain into Purpose on Youth and Loud
“I don't think you kind of get through something and then it's all over and then you just move on to the next stage. Sometimes hope is actually about finding a way through something.”
Imagine facing a childhood filled with challenges and emerging stronger on the other side. That's exactly what Monique Lisbon, a songwriter, author, and public speaker, has done. In this episode of Youth and Loud, Monique opens up about her difficult upbringing, the abuse she endured, and how she found hope in the midst of it all. She shares how understanding that her reactions were normal was a crucial step in her healing process.
