From Rock Bottom to Role Model: Raushia's Journey of Resilience
I never used to think there was a way out. And it's just that if I hadn't had that, I wouldn't have been able to keep her. If I'm not focusing on the internal work, I'm not in a good place. Get up, do your hair, do your makeup, get out, do it Each Day. So I'm not imprisoned in my mind anymore. I have a better quality of life now, better ability to support myself emotionally, and that's what I would say.
Imagine hitting rock bottom and then finding the strength to climb back up. That's exactly what Raushia did. In this gripping episode of 'Flip'dah Script', host Soul.B sits down with Raushia, a woman who has faced more than her fair share of life's toughest challenges. From battling mental health issues and addiction to confronting racism and spending time in prison, Raushia's story is nothing short of extraordinary.
She didn't just stop at overcoming these hurdles; she went on to rebuild her life, re-educate herself, and become a beacon of hope for others walking a similar path. Today, Raushia is a qualified supervisor, an accredited counsellor, and a trustee for women in prison. She also works with women affected by domestic violence, giving back to the community that once supported her. Her journey is a testament to the power of resilience and the human spirit.
