You may be familiar with Venus Morris Griffin's story from the recent feature in Humans of New York. It is a story of triumph over adversity and much more.

Venus had a tumultuous childhood and married young at 21. She had 6 children with her husband before the fateful night when she received a phone call from a prostitute and she learned that her husband was living a secret life. With her husband in prison for 45 years for aggravated sexual molestation and hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt, she fought her way back.

Using her real estate license, Venus managed to create a 7 figure income stream and is now flying around the country as a motivational speaker and soon to be author of the book VALIDATED.

She shares her story and how she is now giving back to students with a parent currently in prison. Her story is one of faith, perseverance and family bonds.
