Welcome to Hanging on For Hope , I am your host Andrea Page. Hanging on for hope is the stories about people working to overcome trauma and adversity.  From incarceration to kids in crisis, postpartum depression, acute grief and loss and serious health challenges we hear from everyday people on what they going through and how they get through it.  We also hear from experts on the latest strategies , supports , treatment and brain science for overcoming adverse life experiences and improving quality of life . The human experience is influenced by so many things. Together we can learn how to over come the more difficult aspects of life while seeking personal, social and political justice.

Todays guest is Heather Mason,

Heather is a mother of 2 and  3 year federal inmate now working and thriving in the community.  She is a true success story but really is the needle in the haystack . Hearing her story will give you insight into the cycle of trauma , the broken-ness within the system that re-traumatizes people and how she is making a difference and using her life story to help others overcome!
