Victoria Kelly: From Childhood Abuse Survivor to Advocate for Change
“If you've got breath in your body, there's hope.”
Ever wondered how someone can turn a life marred by childhood abuse into a mission of hope and change? Meet Victoria Kelly, the founder of A Helping Hand for Healing Souls, who joins Bailey Smith on The Never Give Up Show. Victoria's story is one of survival, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to ending domestic and sexual violence.
She opens up about the various forms of abuse she endured during her formative years, including sexual abuse and what she describes as legal kidnapping. Despite these harrowing experiences, Victoria emerged stronger and more determined to make a difference. In this episode, she shares her journey from victim to advocate, focusing on her work with support groups, police departments, and shelters to meet the basic needs of women and children.
She also introduces her latest project, The Clothesline Project, which aims to raise awareness about violence against women through powerful visual storytelling. Victoria's candid reflections on the broken judicial system and the lack of support for abuse survivors offer a sobering look at the challenges many face. Yet, her message is ultimately one of hope. 'If you've got breath in your body, there's hope', she says, urging listeners to keep fighting for what they believe in.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration and practical advice on how to support survivors of abuse.
