In this episode of the "Wait A Gam Minute" podcast, Jeanita shares her powerful life story with hosts Gam and Mz Gogetta. She opens up about her challenging upbringing, growing up with an alcoholic mother who was both abusive and overly protective. Despite having a sister who is 11 years older, the two have never developed a close relationship, leaving Jeanita feeling isolated.
Jeanita recounts her experiences of meeting her father for the first time at around 8 or 9 years old, after he was released from prison. He has struggled with drug addiction for over 40 years, adding to the instability of her childhood. Early in her life, she adopted a tough demeanor, refusing to tolerate mistreatment from other women, a reaction rooted in her painful experiences with her mother.
As time went on, Jeanita recognized that God was working in her life, particularly in her relationships with women. Despite facing significant challenges as an entrepreneur, including periods of homelessness where she had to sleep in her car, she has persevered. Jeanita believes that her journey has equipped her to empower women across the globe, using her platform to inspire others who may be facing similar struggles. This episode is a testament to resilience, faith, and the power of personal transformation. #explorepage #podcast #interview
