How Did One Woman Go From Surviving to Leading? Cindy Witteman’s Journey
Description
In this inspiring episode of the Refine & Shine Podcast, Angelina Rivera sits down with the incredible Cindy Witteman—international bestselling author, action mastery specialist, founder of Force Magazine, and creator/host of the powerful Little Give TV Show.
Cindy opens up about her remarkable journey from a childhood marked by poverty, instability, and hardship to rising above domestic violence and rebuilding her life as a single mom. Her story is one of resilience, faith, and turning pain into purpose.
You’ll hear how Cindy founded Driving Single Parents, a nonprofit that gifts vehicles to single parents at no cost, and the heart-centered mission behind it. She shares how she launched Force Magazine after a vivid dream, created her own TV show by saying “yes” scared, and became a 5x bestselling author—all while staying grounded in gratitude, family, and service.
This episode dives deep into:
✨ How to take action even when you’re terrified
✨ Turning adversity into a mission that serves others
✨ Building platforms that create real impact (books, TV, magazines, nonprofits)
✨ Why clarity and daily micro-actions are the key to big results
✨ Rebuilding trust and love after trauma
✨ Mastering time, boundaries, and balance as a visionary creator
✨ The mindset that carries you from survival to purpose
Cindy also shares her favorite motivational quote, her go-to book recommendation, and the empowering belief that everything you need is already within you.
If you’re craving inspiration, clarity, and proof that your story can change the world — this is the episode for you.
