Aleanya grew up living in low-income housing, had a no-show father and a schizophrenic mother who was addicted to both drugs & alcohol. Growing up in the projects witnessing drugs, violence & poverty, left Aleanya feeling unsure of what life had to offer, along with not understanding or valuing her worth. A high school basketball coach recognized her potential and pushed her into a more positive direction in life. Aleanya decided she would be the first in her family to go to college and pursue a degree. Today, she’s the Founder/CEO of Ladies Under Construction – a mentor outreach program for girls in the Indianapolis area.  She's incredibly inpsiring and gives the BEST advice.  Dream big. Don’t give up. Remember why you got started. Be tenacious.  Do it anyway. You’re already feeling the feeling, so continue on. Get a tribe of people that will push you on the days you can’t even push yourself. Her thoughts about her nonprofit About Ladies Under Construction ... I think about construction.
