Melissa Llarena grew up in a very abusive home, and in her need to distract herself from that world, she was able to do what so many of us can't. She focused on her studies and used her power of imagination to thrust herself into a future of hope, wonder, and success. She's now a podcaster, a mom of identical twins, a published author, a coach, and a writer for Forbes with over 4 million readers.
