In today's episode, we talk with Ms. Christina Lawrence, the CEO of Re-Present Foundation Limited

Christina shares with us her journey from becoming a Teen mom, being pregnant at age 15, to now starting her Foundation [Charity] to predominantly help teenage mothers and women in crisis. In the interview she shares the highs and lows - the hills and valleys of attending high school while caring for her daughter at the same time; the ridicule and abuse she faced at the hands of classmates and persons within her community who sought to punish her. She speaks about her family support system, and how they came alongside to help her during that time of crisis in her life.

Christina is adamant that persons who find themselves in the company of teen moms, are not to give up on them, nor ostracize them; but to love, respect, affirm and re-affirm, encourage and support them. The words we speak and the actions we perform during life's uncertain and unplanned moments are usually the catalyst that helps the person to heal, and to remain on track to fulfilling their destiny.

A lot of people's destinies are tied to our own journeys of overcoming, and our own journeys of forgiveness and restoration. Christina describes our past as scars that shape the power we amass in order to change the world. Finally she encourages women to "Love Yourself; Embrace and honour your valleys. They help you to find your Purpose. Do not hide your Talent, but multiply it."
