In fact, many people who have faced childhood trauma go on to lead successful and fulfilling lives.
This is certainly the case for “Chica”, who joins Candace for this episode of the podcast. Despite experiencing some harrowing childhood experiences, Chica has gone on to achieve her dream of becoming successful. She believes that her experiences have actually made her a better parent. As she explains, they've given her a greater understanding of what her children might be going through and a deeper empathy for their challenges. It's an inspiring story that is sure to resonate with listeners who have faced their own childhood traumas.
