In this episode, I’m joined by Anne Alobwede, author of Scars to Stars: A Memoir. She shares her story of coming to the U.S. as an international student, going to nursing school, becoming a registered nurse, and getting involved in a toxic relationship that ultimately led to her imprisonment. She emphasizes the importance of asking for help from loved ones, finding therapy through writing and sharing her story, and the beauty of finding the good in every situation. Ms. Alobwede's book can be purchased on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3ksyqZB.
