4 THE JEWEL N U CEO/Founder
Karen Denise Alston, CA - I AM a JEWEL
I am a 30+ years domestic violence and sexual assault survivor. My past years of physical abuse include severe beatings which resulted in an inability to have children. I also endured countless death threats, and unforgettable memories of being raped by my former husband. Subsequently this violence led to brokenness, shame, and extremely low self esteem. Now I rise.... I am a fearless survivor, dedicated to helping others seek professional guidance and support, regardless of age, gender, socio-economic status or religious beliefs.
I AM not what I have been through in my life that defines who I AM, it is how I got through it that has made me the person I AM today! I AM a JEWEL choosing to be a servant "4 the JEWEL N U"
