Was it rape or prostitution? That’s the question at the center of Jossette Pelatan’s origin story — a brutal beginning no child should inherit. And yet somehow, from circumstances that bleak, she’s manifesting a life that feels larger than anything she was ever “supposed” to become.
In this episode, Jossette opens up about being born into generational trauma, surviving homelessness, and navigating mental-health battles that still follow her today. Despite having no stable place to live right now, she’s writing multiple books 📚, building a film project 🎬, and moving through life with a level of faith that borders on supernatural.
She shouldn’t be this hopeful.
She shouldn’t be this driven.
But she is — and that’s what makes her story impossible to ignore.
Inside this episode, we explore:
✨ What it means to inherit trauma at birth
✨ Surviving homelessness as a teen — and again as an adult
✨ The ongoing battle with mental health and identity
✨ “Delusional belief” and manifestation as survival tools
✨ Her ascent from GED to PhD
✨ The creative fire guiding her future
✨ How community support can reroute a destiny
Jossette’s resilience doesn’t just inspire — it instructs.
Her life is proof that where you start has nothing to do with where you’re capable of going.
