Despite the obstacles she faced, this single parent managed to obtain a Marketing degree, achieve career success, actively engage in the community, and discover the love of her life. A decade and a half ago, she made the decision to relocate to Canada. Since then, she has chosen a secluded path, prioritizing her family and focusing on raising their children. Determined to shield them from toxic environments, she deliberately opted out of social media to maintain their privacy. In 2018, grappling with overwhelming depression and anxiety, she sought help through brief therapy. During this time, she gained valuable insights into narcissism and the importance of setting boundaries. The years 2020 and 2021 brought further therapy sessions, leading to a diagnosis of complex post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Committed to her healing journey, she persevered through the challenges and began to experience a renewed sense of well-being. Driven by an entrepreneurial spirit and a deep passion for teaching, she is currently building her own business and expanding her reach through a podcast and a YouTube channel dedicated to anxiety management. Guided by love, dedication, and a strong belief in equality, fairness, and justice, she strives to make a positive impact on the world. Through her endeavors, she aims to empower others and foster holistic well-being for individuals and the environment. #ChoosetoChallenge #womenentrepreneurs #GricelidisBossee #mentalhealthmatters #LaWannaBradford #mentalhealthawarenessmonth #TheBradfordGroup #e360TV To contact LaWanna as a podcast guest, speaking engagements, or to schedule a complimentary strategy review session, please email her at lawanna@bradfordgroupmtg.com and include Choose to Challenge in the subject line.
