Monique Smith, The Oldest Living "Jane Doe" On Breaking Cycles, Claiming Your Identity And Softness After Childhood Trauma

Brown Girl Self-Care

*trigger warning* This episode talks about exploitation and abuse of a Black child.

In today's episode of the Brown Girl Self-Care Podcast, I am speaking with Monique Smith, aka the worlds oldest living Jane Doe. We dive into:

• The traumatic experiences she endured and how she became a "Jane Doe"
• Laying claim to her identity unapologetically so that she could begin to heal and thrive
• Breaking cycles with her children
• How our babies are labeled as "runaways" more often than not and why that happens
• Walking out her God-given assignment even as she was unsure if she had a passion for it
• How she was able to explore softness and trust after trauma
