Hannah Sward Is The Only One Stripping To Reveal Her Authentic Self Episode 171

What if you were kidnapped and molested by a stranger at age six, and grew up to be a stripper and a prostitute?

Best-selling author and essayist, Hannah Sward, found herself drinking in drug store bathrooms before therapy sessions, and doing methamphetamines to stay skinny.

But what would you do if you realized that you could be the author of your own life story? Would you continue on into an even darker existence? Or would you turn your experience into your greatest asset, and write a book that revealed your authentic self?
