Liliana Hernandez was a young single mom of 2 by the age of 20. While on welfare, food stamps and government assistance, she put herself through college, completing her masters degree and becoming a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. She struggled financially with two young sons but through hard work and determination raised them on a single income and worked her way up, becoming the Associate Clinical Director of a non profit agency, Adjunct Professor at a local University providing courses in community mental health, and does group supervision for The Latino Family Therapy group where she is an alumni. She also purchased her dream home during this time. She also battled with weight loss and faced the challenge head on losing 105 lbs! In our conversation she shares many nuggets of wisdom, but the key is to really love ourselves.
Liliana became a Certified Life Coach in 2017 (where I met her) and feels her life mission is to eradicate abuse in her lifetime. She wants all children to live in a nurturing, loving, kind and caring safe environment. Imagine helping mother's heal their pain before bringing children into the world. Imagine, a family living free of worry that someone might hurt or kill themselves. Imagine stopping the cycle of multi-generation abuse. Just imagine the power of an educated female.... the ripple effect on generations! She is changing lives every day by living her passion and purpose!
