Talking with Kristen, you’d never know that she had once struggled with something so difficult. Today, she owns a home and a Mustang convertible, and she is one of the most positive, compassionate people you’ll meet. She radiates love and kindness; you can’t talk to her without smiling.
Kristen owes so much of her success to her mother and her grandmother. Back when Kristen struggled with addiction, they sacrificed their own home to bail Kristen out of jail.
And now Kristen is in a place financially where she can help her mom, who is sick, with her bills — a small token of her gratitude.
But Kristen looks out for more than just her mother. She has also gained custody of her five-year-old niece, Alisa, whom she raises with Cassie. With her mother and grandmother, Kristen and her partner also help take care of her 14-year-old niece, Andi.
Kristen continues to look for ways to open her heart and home to those in need. While she and Cassie are still trying to have their own child, they’re also applying to be foster parents.
