Ashley Judd is powerful.
Despite a troubling childhood and early adulthood filled with numerous instances of sexual abuse, she went on to be an immensely successful actress.
Ashley went to 13 different schools by the time she graduated from high school, and was many times left to her own devices because both her mother and sister travelled the country trying to further their music careers.
While living in Kentucky as a child, Ashley experienced the first of many sexual abuses she would suffer. A man in an empty store offered her a quarter to play pinball and then pulled her into a back room and molested her.
And this was just one of many traumatic experiences she recounts in the book.
Thankfully, Ashley is resilient, and she made it through these traumas and is stronger because of it.
She’s truly an inspiration!
