Christina Foxwell's early life in South Africa was with loving and strict parents. Her father was a Penecostal minister. It was during the age of apartheid, and Christina, a fair-skinned person of color, found herself longing to fit in and to be loved. Christina said she looked to men to abdicate her authority to and had a series of codependent relationships. It took a few tries in marriage, but Christina learned that finding her voice and strength would rely on her deciding to heal. Today, Christina makes her home in Australia, where she runs a consulting and coaching practice and is the author of four books.You will learn:Telling our life's stories, even the difficult ones, can be doused in love rather than being steeped in shame.To be a good parent, Christina says, you need not to stay in an abusive relationship, but to show your child what love looks like inside a relationship.Every person must decide to heal if they are to move forward.Connect with Christina at https://www.ignitepurpose.com.au/ On Facebook    https://www.facebook.com/christina.taljaard1 For show notes, click HERELizbeth’s linksBuy Lizbeth a Coffeehttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/LizbethMeredithLizbeth’s memoir, now a movie!
