When your world crumbles, how do you find the strength to rebuild?

In this new episode in our series, Advocating for Resilience, Reggie Reed shares a narrative of personal loss and the effort to transform grief into advocacy. He tells us about how he confronted the murder of his mother and the indictment of his father to become a beacon for others wrestling with feeling voiceless.

We discuss the insights into the resilience and leadership that can be born from the depths of despair, the power of sharing one's story, charting a path forward when the script is unwritten, and the catharsis of seeing your deepest struggles resonate with others. Reggie pays homage to Nelson Mandela's ideals, and his own journey mirrors such perseverance.

Reggie Reed is an author and an accomplished professional in the pharmaceutical industry. He holds a Master’s Degree in business and global marketing. In his first book, The Day My Mother Never Came Home, Reed recalls the events surrounding the unsolved murder of his mother and the subsequent indictment and trial of his father 32 years later.
