88 - Heather Rose - being raped and bullied growing up didn't stop me. I now empower childrens minds

Heather was bullied relentlessly at school when she was growing up. She had to have a fair amount of time off for health issues which just singled her out to be picked on even more when she was there.
 
Looking for solace in an older man she was raped by him and his friends when she was only 15.

Heather never told a soul for a long time, she pretended to be happy and put a brave face on it all but her self esteem and confidence was lower than low, she tried to take her own life at the age of 16.
 
She craved love and attention but this took her into a series of bad relationships. She married a man who was mentally abusive although she is grateful to have her son from that union the verbal abuse took its toll on her. She also suffered four miscarriages.
 
Somehow, something deep inside Heather told her that she needed to carry on, that she needed to achieve something for herself, to prove these people wrong and never to allow them to take her life from her.
 
She tried starting a few businesses which failed and took her even lower but eventually she found a network marketing business that introduced her to the world of self development and positive thinking.
 
Her son Isaac was diagnosed with ADHD and they went through hell trying to sort out his schooling. But it was knowing that she had to help her son that spurred her on to employ a mindset  coach. Heartbreakingly Isaac came home from school one day and said he didn't want to be here anymore.
 
Heather sprang into action and used the positive affirmations and mindset techniques that she had been taught  on Isaac. There was a massive improvement in his confidence. Other parents started reaching out to Heather and asking her how to help her children.
