Courageous Podcast with Madeline Hernandez
Religion & Spirituality
My guest Ria was born and raised in Alabama. Like many, she faced great adversity very early in life. Ria was sexually abused by her father from age 12 to 19, forced to play the role of his wife and even shared with other men.
Desperate to escape she left home at 19 without a job, a car or a high school diploma. It was her now husband, who she has been with for over 20 years who gave her the confidence and courage to leave home and start a new life.
Ria says "God doesn't cause the pain in our lives, but he can use it to help others overcome their own adversities."
Today, Ria is a motivational leadership speaker, certified trainer, TEDx speaker, and author of 13 books. Ria also founded Fearfully and Wonderfully Me, empowering women to become the leaders they are destined to be.
