HOW IT ALL STARTED
Our founder, Erica Young, had a burning passion to help others the way she wished she had been helped when she was in the early stages of healing from childhood sexual abuse. Moreover, she did not see or hear of many people who looked like her stepping forward to tell the stories of overcoming childhood sexual abuse. After years of building a strong support system, she wanted to give back and walk alongside others on the healing journey. She has been mentoring and encouraging women to heal for the last six years, and in 2022 decided it was time to make Overcoming 2 Become a global mission and see more women healed, whole, and living life on purpose and with purpose.
