Few of us have been able to dodged periods of disrespect that life throws at us. It can come from so many different places – family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, teammates or even a total stranger. Where it comes from and who disses us often has a direct correlation to its impact on us, our self esteem, relationships mood and even how hard we have to work to overcome. Here, your story matters. Individuals just like you have been “dissed” – yet it wasn’t the end of their story. You are not alone, and together, we can prevail. Empowerment, grit and moving forward are just some of the ways to describe our growing and inspiring testimonials of those who were residents of a dissed society at some point in time.
