Finding Strength in Pain: Vanisha Breault and Her Daughters Share Their Journey
It's so amazing to me how much some of the worst things that can happen to us can be the greatest moments of teaching too, because I know for me these stories. These have probably been some of the biggest, greatest, most beneficial lessons and things that I've learned about myself ever in my life.
What happens when you bring together a mother and her daughters to talk about their deepest wounds? You get a conversation that's raw, real, and profoundly moving.
