At the age of 12 her mother's boyfriend sexually assaulted her. Then from the age of 13-17 she was forced into sexual relationships with two of her uncles. So at the age of 18 she got married, after the I do's I quickly learned that my husband would make it a weekly tradition to beat me. She stayed for 3 years. She is also a survivor of Military sexual trauma. For years she struggled with the thought that she was not enough. This way of thinking affected how she showed up in the world. She knew she did not want to continue to live her life in such depression and a life cycle of feast to famine.
