Gelisa Lewis thought she had it all. After enduring sexual abuse as a child, she thought trauma was behind her.
She thought having a child would close the loop on what was otherwise an extraordinary life.
But she was wrong.
She was also wrong about thinking child-loss was the worst thing that could happen to her.
Listen to find out what other surprises life had for her, but more importantly, what she has done to plant her feet firmly on the ground and even give back through a non-profit.
And find out why "a heart of gold" is the phrase that I choose to describe her today.
Quotables:
"The therapists I had were terrible"
"I blame the therapist in me"
"...my life was in reset"
Words of advice:
"You must make decisions that make you happy"
