Each guest discusses their story of how their lives were turned upside down, by unexpected events.

Dr. Patricia V. Smith, joins us from Jamaica, to bring us her incredible story of escaping a terrifying life as a child on the streets of Jamaica! Dr Smith was homeless by then age of 10, and she talks openly about abandonment, abuse, and homelessness in her home town, to journeying to the USA, and becoming the CEO of Sweet P Home Care, a multimillion-dollar home healthcare company in New York. Patricia’s story inspires readers to embrace their infinite potential, find purpose, and rise above even the darkest challenges. Deeply rooted in the Finnish concept of ‘sisu’, stoic determination, grit, and bravery—her mission is to empower others to persist against all odds and create meaningful change in their lives. Author of I Persist, is a living testament to the transformative power of persistence, resilience, and self- determination. Her story is a rollercoaster of twists and turns and a simply incredible episode!
