In this episode, we sit down with Caz, who became a mother at a young age and learned how being tethered to the wrong person can dramatically shape your life. This smart woman eventually became a university graduate, and started working for the first time in her late thirties. Join us as Caz shares her inspiring journey of determination as she fought against all that life threw at her. In a time when family violence is perpetuating so much trauma, Caz’s resilience shines a light on the tenacity of a mother’s love.

*PLEASE NOTE: Please note that this episode includes references to suicidal thoughts, depression and family violence.
