The Bald Truth- My Journey From Victim To Survivor Documentary

The Bald Truth - My Journey From Victim To Survivor Documentary screams victory and hope over life's many adversities. It is a powerful tell all that will take the viewer on a journey of childhood sexual abuse, rape, divorce, failed relationships, and my personal struggle with severe health issues. Spiritually, I drew closer to God and found solace in His love after a failed suicide attempt. Withstanding the test of faith, I also battled Satan to save my son's life. I am very transparent in sharing my testimony that has transformed my life from many years of victimization to now being a strong survivor.
