Laura Steinbrink grew up with an unanswered question and a secret. She wanted to know why her birth parents gave her up for adoption. And then there was her secret — that as a child, she was sexually abused. She started to learn the reason behind her adoption at age 17; thirty years later she found the strength to reveal the sexual abuse. Over time, she built what she thinks of as her toolbox — tactics that kept her strong and safe while she found answers and brought secrets to light. Laura  joins Jennifer Malcolm, President, and CEO of Jennasis Speaks, to share her experience moving past secrets to success.
