Misty Nesbitt:The Girl Who Kept Breathing: Breaking Generational Trauma and Choosing Resilience

In this episode of Adversity to Strength, I’m joined by Misty Nesbitt, author of The Girl Who Kept Breathing. Married as a teenager and shaped by childhood trauma and systemic failure, Misty’s story begins in adversity. But what makes it powerful is not what happened to her — it’s what she chose to build afterward.We discuss generational trauma, reclaiming identity after survival, personal responsibility, motherhood, and the long road from endurance to growth. Misty speaks honestly about rebuilding a life from the inside out, without blame or sensationalism.
