Teen pregnancy and becoming a young mom is hard, Josie knows this first hand. However, her mindset and perspective around her journey is so beautiful. She wants to open up about her story in hopes that it will help others who became pregnant at a young age. 

She has struggled with closing doors on her past, re-imagining her future, shifting her life sooner than expected, and more. She also has discovered beautiful things about herself, spent more intentional time with family, and matured faster than she ever imagined.

Josie is here to discuss the stigmas around being a teen mom and that it is hard, but you can be lifted by the love and support of those around you and your personal mindset. 

Josie wants to help others and be an outlet for people on a similar journey as her, please reach out if you have questions or need support.
