I had the privilege of hearing Lavinia speak and her story is shocking as well as amazing. Shocking because of the awful abuses she endured and amazing because this beautiful, dignified woman that I knew never carried a hint that hers could be a story so shocking.

I have shared a speaking platform with Lavinia and have seen firsthand how she lives and loves with a rare level of integrity, justice and compassion. Anything this beautiful soul communicates has been carefully thought through and inspires others to courageous action.

Pursuit VI:X Church had the pleasure of hearing Lavinia's life story. It was moving and extremely powerful. Lavinia is a wonderful communicator who enables her listeners to come away realising that no matter what they have been through, there is always HOPE.

Lavinia is the ultimate survivor. She has triumphed over the fear and pain of her past. Her journey will make you cry and laugh but it will mostly inspire you to live your better life!’

I have heard many sad and tragic stories in my time but this one would have to be one of the saddest. It is also one of great hope and pure love.

Raw, authentic and challenging, Lavinia has a compelling story which needs to be heard. Thank you for your honesty.
