37|Breaking Generational Cycles: Angelina Mojica’s Story

How do you find your voice when you were taught your entire childhood to stay silent?

 

Angelina Mojica grew up in a traditional household where she learned early on to keep quiet and meet impossibly high expectations. Seeking an escape, she married at just 19 years old, only to find herself trapped in a pattern of toxic relationships, betrayal, and profound hardship. After facing her darkest moments and realizing generational cycles were beginning to threaten her own daughter, Angelina knew she had to take ownership of her healing. In this raw and honest episode, she shares her powerful journey of surviving deep childhood wounds, discovering her faith, and ultimately breaking the patterns that held her back. Today, she is the founder of Empower Her Steps, a nonprofit dedicated to helping other women heal, elevate, and rebuild their lives.
