Our next guest is Shameeka Baptist. She is the author and inspirational speaker behind "The Strength Within". She is a young woman that grew up in the foster care system who defied the odds. Today, she shares her journey of resilience with others. Her hope is that it provides others the courage and strength to keep fighting and to persevere, because The Strength Within is what will carry you through.
