Right now the odds are you know someone who’s being battered, verbally or financially abused. The numbers don’t lie. 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men. Finding a way to help can be tricky.

Elyshia mentors hundreds of women locally and abroad on personal mastery, self-love and specifically on the topic on Abuse through Domestic Violence and Mental Wealth.
