Not The Same

Life:Understood - Lerato Khoza

*Warning: This episode does contain references to sexual assault and self-harm. Listener discretion is advised.* Lerato Khoza (formerly Mathews) was raised in a violent home, being the youngest of 13 children. A very blended family, spread over decades, created an environment for this quiet girl to be a bit overlooked. She chose to fight her battles on her own by whatever means necessary. This resulted in a broken, hurting person just looking to be understood by others. It wasn't until a chance encounter on a regular day, that Lerato found the beginning of her brand new story. Finally, things started to make sense. Please send me a message if there’s someone you’d like to have share their testimony.
