#102 René Michele

Author, speaker, and abuse recovery coach René Michele shares that the best ways to get to the other side of a life-shattering experience are (1) to hold on to hope and believe that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, (2) to ask for help, and (3) to use positive affirmations. She learned these lessons while enduring 6 years of sexual and physical abuse, which was followed by several suicide attempts, addiction, violent relationships, and further sexual assaults.
