I did not think it was possible…

If you would have told me that 10 years into the future I would be writing a book about empowering women and mothers of all races, of all cultures, and inspiring women to HAVE IT ALL, I would have laughed. And that would have been when I was 25 years old. I was just married to my second husband, after having a very messy divorce with the father of my three older children, whom I was married to for 6 years. I had already put myself through boot camp as a single mother, working nights for Brinks, and was a Reserve Officer for San Bernardino Police Dept.

 I was living in a poor, depressed city in the outskirts of Los Angeles County, trying to find enough strength in me to never again be a victim of domestic abuse, domestic violence, or being smothered by domination of men. I knew I had to leave San Bernardino, and I knew I had to educate myself. This is where my journey really began.
