My Story - Emerge 360 Interview

This month, I sat with Kamonda Posada, the host of Emerge 360, and we talked about my experience with sexual assault and sexual abuse, and why I feel so strongly about the LAMBS movement.

It is a real and raw interview filled with grace, hope, and truth. God has been good to me. My love and my life is in Him and I pray that His light shines through me.

I'd love to read your comments after you watch. God bless you.

Buried Alive (The REAL Reason for L.A.M.B.S.)

As a child, I was molested by my babysitter and by a family member. As a teenager, boys from my neighborhood raped me. The first time I was molested, I thought the child in me died. I lost my innocence, sense of wonder, trust, optimism, stability, happiness, and other things that I didn’t discover until I got older. As a woman, I have repeatedly relived every painful moment and result of the abuse, and I have realized that the little girl in me didn’t die...she was buried alive. When I thought about my life and burst into tears, the little girl was mourning. When I had trouble trusting people and forming relationships, the little girl was resisting. When I insisted on controlling everything around me, the little girl needed structure and security. When I functioned in chaos while everyone around me was falling apart, the little girl was making sense of it all, so that she could go on living. For years, I struggled with the dichotomy of self. There was the strong and confident wom...

There are times in your life when you retreat to a dark place that no one knows about. It is the place you go to when what you are facing is too difficult or too painful to face in the light. There is nothing wrong with going to this place on rare occasion, as I believe that we all retreat to a place of darkness sometimes. The problem begins when you stay in that place and take up residence there. Be cautious in the darkness. You will take missteps, run into things, fall, lose your bearings, become frustrated, and you may even sink deeper into the darkness.

Do not be fooled into thinking that once you visit the darkness that there is no turning back. Light is only a thought or a prayer away. A simple way to think about this is to reflect on night and day. They exist at the same...

DYM: The Wonder Years

I wonder how much different things would be Dear younger me Our minds have the ability to dream about the future and remember the past.  I’d bet that most of us spend our time thinking about what we could have or should have done differently. We spend countless hours, days, and years replaying events and wondering what would have happened if we made a different choice. We ask ourselves questions like: What if I’d fought harder? What if I’d gone to school when I had the chance? What if I’d asked for more money when I took the job? What if I’d stayed instead of leaving? What if I’d left when it happened the first time? What if I’d chosen a different profession? What if I’d chosen a different mate? What if . . . and the list goes on. We spend the precious time that we have now running through scenarios that could have, maybe, possibly changed our current situation. We play the blame game. We cry. We get angry. We. Waste. Time.  I believe the only rea...
