My mission in life is to break as many cycles of generational hardship as I can.
Find My Street Smart is the first step in that plan. Right now, I’m starting with my own. I need to find my street smarts—because to know how to break the cycle, I have gotta break some cycles that I have left.
Let me tell you a little about myself.
I was born in Michigan and grew up in Alabama. Have eleven siblings and a determination level that just won't quit. Now, I consider myself an expert in hardships. I have lived through homelessness, foster care, neglect, poverty, abuse, and a serious lack of education. I didn’t just read about generational hardships—I've lived them.
Along the way, my expertise began to show me some patterns on why mine kept continuing. I started to realize that I had this huge lack of basic knowledge on how to navigate a hardship or really any basic life situation.
I started to find resources that could’ve helped me, information I didn’t even know existed, and hard lessons I could have avoided along the way with some basic knowledge. Help was out there, I just didn’t know where to look or how to use it.
Thanks for being here,
I'm Hannah.
