Author and filmmaker. She unmutes Voices that have been quiet for so long.
Book- You Go Girl
Film- A Silent Enemy is a documentary about survivors of domestic violence.

What happens in the homestays in the home. We were taught not to speak about things that may embarrass our families. When we do that, we are perpetuating the cycle and allowing it to continue.

Women who were survivors of domestic violence and abuse were drawn to her because of her book. After so many came to her, she decided to make a documentary about domestic violence.

How do you move from "I can't do anything" to "I must do something"?

1) Take the energy that makes you want to help and transfer it into something that will make a difference for someone. She shared her idea and people started to put her in contact with others who could help her with the project. Then, she asked for funding for the project even at a time that she thought people had no money to help.

2) If you have an idea, go ahead and start working on it because you do not know who is waiting to help you build your dream.
