On this month’s Light Up Your World special guest AJ will once again be joining us to share more about her personal journey of becoming a birth mother and finding healing from trauma and addiction.

As a survivor of sexual abuse and assault, AJ is deeply familiar with the impact of trauma and the struggles survivors face on a daily basis. She has spent the past decade on her own path of recovery and has found incredible healing in both supporting other survivors and hearing them share their stories. For this reason, AJ now desires to share her story as a testament to her own personal journey and that of every survivor, be they man, woman, or child. As she shares, your heart will be deeply touched, and you will find AJ is more than a survivor–she is also a THRIVER who has made it her life’s work to empower other survivors as they traverse the path to healing.
