This week's guest, Raya Belmonte, and I talk about the many adversities she experienced in her life. Beginning in her childhood with lack of positive attention from the people in her life. This led to her causing a lot of trouble in her younger years and struggling with her self-worth.
Raya opens up about the ways she's wronged others in her life because of how low she was feeling. Also, about how she ended up with significant others who treated her horribly, also due to how low she felt.
She also talks about the amazing people she's met along the way who have been huge supports for her and her growth & healing process.
This interview is definitely a story of an ongoing journey that Raya was so generous to share with us so openly.
I say this in the intro, but I just want it in writing as well. If Raya were a color, she'd be glitter. You'll feel her energy immediately when you hear her voice.
I hope you guys enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it with Raya.
