Meet Edna

Published November 4, 2019

Before I started the TWB program, Ms. Shanelle Gayden said, “This program is for you.” She asked me to apply to TWB and interview with Stephanie, then come back and tell her what I think. I was skeptical at first, but I quickly discovered that this program was the perfect fit for me.

When I started at TWB in September, I expected to be baking, but I soon learned there was much more to the program than that. TWB showed me that I am not alone in my struggles – so many women face the same challenges as me. I found comfort and strength in the other women that shared their stories with the group, and even though confronting my past and healing is difficult, I’m proud of how far I’ve come.

I’m grateful that TWB helped me get set up with a therapist (even though the women there are like my therapists). Each woman at TWB supports and empowers one another. TWB projects a positive energy and an understanding environment that makes it easy to feel accepted and focus on bettering our futures.

This program provides an opportunity for women to meet other women from all different backgrounds and experiences. I am proud that every day I woke up early and made it to class, helped my fellow Team Members, and stayed positive! I completed the program and met some incredible women. Come and join TWB – you’ll love it! TWB will be behind you 100%.
