180 Purpose after Abuse with Becca Stevens

Sometimes you meet a true heroine - a woman who has turned the worst situations into beautiful profound Purpose. That's Becca Stevens. She survived her father's death at 5, then abuse, and turned all of that pain into a passion for empowering women survivors of abuse. She heals by creating safe spaces, financial independence, and lifelong community support to rise up against systems that commoditize, criminalize, and abuse women. She is my soul mate, Shero and an amazing human who teaches us all that everything is POSSIBLE.

If you want Purpose, listen to this episode. If you have suffered abuse, listen to heal. Becca is a speaker, social entrepreneur, priest, founder of ten non-profit justice initiatives, President of Thistle Farms, and author of an amazing book called Practically Divine that was just released in September.

Becca leads important conversations across the country with an inspiring message that love is the strongest force for change in the world. This is a must-listen to episode!
