promoting self-efficacy

As the granddaughter of a Pentecostal pastor, I learned early that people open up to those they trust—no one wants to carry emotional weight alone. The real barrier isn’t silence; it’s being met with recycled responses from listeners who only partly understand. I was raised around people who led with a strength-based approach—listening deeply and responding with care that’s thoughtful, personal, and truly aligned.

Journey towards new Possibilities

Journey towards peace

In late January 2026, Buddhist monks on a 2,300-mile Walk for Peace passed through North Carolina on their journey from Texas to Washington, D.C. Along U.S. Highway 64 toward Raleigh, their quiet presence offered a powerful reminder of compassion and purpose.

Three veterans. Three untold stories. They served our country with pride but their toughest battles came after they went home and took their uniform off. In this powerful conversation, three veterans open up with rare transparency about how military values helped them survive domestic violence, drug addiction, and homelessness.

Maldonado shares how her superiors stepped in to help her escape domestic violence — protecting her and shielding her from future encounters with her abuser. Since her retirement, she’s watched the military begin to take stronger action against domestic violence. A new legal system now removes commanders from prosecution decisions, placing that authority in independent Offices of Special Trial Counsel. In just 17 months, the results are already clear: convictions for domestic violence have more than doubled across multiple branches. Her story is one of survival, change, and the courage it takes to turn pain into progress. Maldonado is also an active member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated.
