In the US Alone, an estimated 1 in 4 women is victim of severe physical abuse. This week on Defining You, I want to replay a very compelling conversation with President of LOVE Life Now Foundation and Domestic Abuse Survivor, Lovern Gordon, who lived to tell her own story and what she is doing today to encourage other women and help  them realize that they are not alone. So if you’re new, or you might have missed this powerful episode give it a listen. If you or someone you know is affected by domestic violence, Lovern will empower you to find your voice and reclaim your power! Lovern is a domestic violence awareness author of the international memoir called, The Legacy He Left Me. She has appeared on numerous radio and television shows including CBS This Morning, NBC’s This is New England and Trinidad’s TV6 News.  The Boston Celtics recently named her one of their ‘Heroes Among Us.’   Listen as she recounts her powerful, heartbreaking, but inspirational story and shares advice and information about resources available to empower women to break the silence, find their voice and live their best lives, despite their experience. Before we dive in, please note that this episode contains depictions of violence that some people may find disturbing. Please proceed at your own discretion.
