Sandra opens up parts of her life and how she navigated some difficult times of her life, how she overcame them and not let it define nor deter her from fulfilling her own best potential. We get to see her resilience, strength, and I personally am so impressed at how full of life she is despite all life has thrown at her. She’s here to teach us how to heal, and not let what you went through take you away from the light of life. #compassion #addiction #mom #BreakingTheSilence #BeyondAddiction #strength #resilience #love #life Connect with me on social media: o   Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/ashleenc_1/] o   Tik Tok [https://www.tiktok.com/@ashleen_c?_r=1&_t=8hWs0rJWBQN]

Episode 21: Women’s Safety - A Global Call for Awareness and Action

Find more information: Website [https://www.ashleenc.com/] This week I bring to you a topic that is close to my heart and warrants a discussion, a lengthier one but I want to continue to highlight the issue around Women’s Safety. Just within the last few weeks there has been news coming out globally of the torture of women, especially of a case from India to the Telegram rooms in South Korea. It’s important that we understand the severity of this issue and continue to bring awareness, uplift and help others, to come together as a community to help protect the vulnerable. Equally important is having the conversation in how to get the proper help at the right time. Lastly, in cases where justice has yet to be served, please don’t let the conversation around it die down. #women #safety #awareness #action #justice Connect with me on social media: o   Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/ashleenc_1/] o   Tik Tok [https://www.tiktok.com/@ashleen_c?_r=1&_t=8hWs0rJWBQN]
