(TW: this episode contains discussion of rape, sexual assault and domestic abuse)

In this episode, Tammy chats with Patricia Wagner about her process of finding freedom after her tumultuous adolescence. They discuss the traumatic experiences of Patricia’s younger years that led her to a life of drug consumption and domestic abuse, the people that supported and motivated her to change her life around, and how both of their pasts have led Tammy and Patricia to a shared mission of positively impacting the lives of others.

Patricia is a successful woman, living a beautiful life that she loves, but it wasn’t always that way. Adopted at the age of 10, she was separated from her parents and moved to France, where she was forbidden from telling anyone at school or elsewhere about her real parents. It was a tough reality for a 10-year-old, and the pressure of living with this secret led her to start running away from home from the age of 14-15 and becoming involved with gang members in the neighbourhood. What followed next was a chapter filled with sexual abuse, drug consumption and domestic abuse. But Patricia didn’t let her past define her, and with the help of people supporting and rooting for her, has become the successful woman that she is today.

Patricia is a recognised success coach for Elites and Experts, as well as a TV producer, professional singer, actress and the Founder of C-Success Academy. She is on a mission to help people from all backgrounds redefine themselves and their brand by giving them the strategies, secrets, and tools for success so they can create the big impact they desire in the world.

Despite living many years of instability and abuse, Patricia fought for her freedom and throughout this episode she reminds us that:

“Your broken past does not have to be your future”
