Talk Show Host at MainStreet with Gary Alan - Powerful Conversation - The Unspoken Truth & Life as A Child & Mental Health Advocate

I always ask about awareness. What are people seeing and how are they responding.

This interview is filled with so much information as we touch upon my personal story of abuse, and the experiences I have had as an author and advocate. Life is not always fair, and when dysfunction strikes a family unit, who takes the biggest hits - The Children…

***Are you aware? I will continue to speak up about this very important topic of Child Safety because we need to do better!

There are many "holes" in the system, and we must be the ones to step up and fill in the gaps. Far too many children continue to die at the hands of their abusers, and we must change this narrative. Every day in the news we see a new precious face of an innocent child who is no longer here, and the stories are horrific. NO CHILD should ever have to endure such things.
Children are a gift and should be treated with care, NOT abuse.
We need to do better!
