Nobody gets through this life without some kind of a trauma. I'm very blessed and I've been through a lot of things, but I'm stronger and more focused and I believe I've come out of this better than I thought it was possible.
Have you ever wondered why some people end up in destructive relationships repeatedly? In this compelling episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now', Linda Lee Blakemore opens up about her life as a child abuse survivor, author, speaker, and advocate.
