Safiyya Vorajee on Turning Her Pain Into Purpose

Safiyya Vorajee is the epitome of strength. This inspiring woman has had to endure unimaginable heartbreak and loss, and is now using her pain and her voice to help others. 

In this powerful conversation, Safiyya opens up about her "second life". She talks about how her childhood with domestic violence shaped her, the power of love and purpose, and how her beautiful daugher, Azaylia, is a light in heaven, while she is a light on earth.
