In this powerful episode of Radiant Resilience, I sit down with author, academic researcher, and entrepreneur Rhonda Parker Taylor to hear her deeply moving life story. Rhonda vulnerably shares her journey of surviving early victimization, the complexities of raising her son through guardianship, and the unimaginable loss of that son to a senseless act of violence.
She opens up about navigating grief, facing a flawed justice system, and learning how to find light in the darkest moments. We explore themes of resilience, emotional intelligence, and transforming trauma into purpose through writing and storytelling.
Rhonda’s story is a true testament to the human spirit — a reminder that even in the face of profound heartbreak, there is always a path to healing, hope, and helping others.
