Gina Brown could have settled with being one of many tragic stories of a human’s inability to claw beyond circumstances outside of her control. Beginning at just four and a half years old, Gina has endured a history of abuse, a devastating health diagnosis, failed familial relationships, self denial, and substance use. Yet instead of succumbing to the trauma, after a lot of work Gina has pushed through and become a national advocate and activist. With humor and conviction, Gina tells her provocative personal story of how she catalyzed her own healing and how she works daily to disrupt the harmful cycles in her family.
