Angela Williams | Abused by My Mother, Homeless, & Heroin Addict to Ph.D.
Based on the experiences she had in the first decade of her life, Angela was destined for a life of struggle, and, as her mom declared - die with a needle in her arm by the time she was 16. This prophecy nearly came true more than once. Instead, she got her Ph.D..
A life of trauma, physical, emotional, and sexual abuse by her mother led to early motherhood, heroin addiction, looking for love in all the wrong places, and losing her son to her own mother who put him in foster care. It would take over a decade for her to get her son back.
As her book describes, she was a child that fell through the cracks of the system. And, nearly paid with her life for it. Her story is a hero's journey where she paved her own path out of living hell.
