Success for me is when you eat, you gorge on your food in front of everybody. For me, from once, you're not keeping that secret a secret, then, when it's exposed into the light it can work, can be done.
Mandy Ogunmokun's life story is nothing short of extraordinary. Growing up in an abusive home where her mother and grandmother were drug-addicted prostitutes, Mandy was first sold for sex at the tender age of four. Her early years were marred by addiction, crime, and frequent stints in Holloway Prison. However, Mandy's tale is not just one of hardship but also of remarkable transformation and resilience.
After decades of battling her demons, she finally broke free from the chains of addiction at the age of 45. She landed her first job and has since dedicated her life to helping others through the Treasures Foundation, an organization she founded to support vulnerable women coming out of prison. This episode of 'What Doesn't Kill Us: The Podcast' delves into Mandy's journey from a life of abuse and addiction to one of hope and service.
Listeners will hear about the pivotal moments that led to her recovery, the challenges she faced along the way, and the incredible impact she is now making in the lives of other women who have faced similar struggles. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration and proof that it's never too late to turn your life around.
