Meet Ray:

This journey of my life started in December 2016 when I decided there was no other alternative for me than to make a substantial change in my life and mindset. Failing was not an option!

I have struggled with addiction, depression, anxiety and PTSD. My daughter/s and son have had behavior struggles and experienced physical and sexual abuse, suicidal ideation.

We successfully navigated a C.P.S case and used many community resources, supports, and systems in our efforts to rebuild our lives and relationships with each other. “Unlocking Your Potential.” was one of the tools that was presented to me. I took this class at 50 years of age and it helped to transform my life and mindset.

After an enormous amount of work and struggles, I eventually came to work for and with many of the support systems that helped to assist our family.

I have numerous certificates, several working credentials. I am an instructor and facilitator for “Unlocking Your Potential.” through Legacy Business Cultures, certified peer counselor, basic mediation training, trauma informed approach, substance use disorder, family navigator. Through my lived experiences it is my desire to help empower families, give hope so that others may succeed in their journeys. I will be overjoyed to connect with you and bring this education to your group.
