In this episode, I’m joined by Angel Willard, an author, advocate, wife, and mother. Angel shares her experiences with trauma, serious physical injuries, chronic pain, incarceration, and rebuilding her life. She talks about motherhood, reclaiming her voice through writing, and taking responsibility for her choices while making room for healing.
Her memoir, Fighting to Come Home, began with the desire to return home. Over time, that journey also became about finding herself again after years of pain, shame, and survival. We talk about how we can be honest about our past without letting it define the rest of our lives. Angel’s story brings a personal perspective to accountability, breaking generational cycles, and becoming the person she wants to be for herself and her family.
Angel is the author of Fighting to Come Home and The Litigation Landmine. Thank you, Angel, for sharing your story with me and our listeners.
