Lydia Y Pope Burden
My mission as an author and public speaker is to be the voice to encourage while speaking the truth, and to focus on those topics that inspire and uplift. I consider myself an abled veteran, not a disabled one. I learned all too well, the value of living life at its fullest while sitting on dialysis struggling for over 30 years with renal failure. While in that space, searching for the most impactful way to make a contribution to society I decided to not let my condition define who I am. Being an army veteran I already knew how to moveforward while still being fearful, so I opted in this case to step out on faith myself, and see how far it takes me. So here I am second leg of the journey, continuing to step out.
