She opens up about her experience as a single mother navigating a world that often labeled her family as broken, flawed, and incomplete. Despite the world’s judgment, she wasn’t going to let anyone define her worth."CEO of Me and My Son" was more than just a title—it was a proclamation. A way to reclaim her family’s narrative and step into her role as the architect of her life.

She shows us that reclaiming power isn’t just about titles—it’s about embracing our full strength, regardless of how the world sees us.Tune in to hear Tonya’s message of resilience and how every woman has the right to name herself and step into her power.

In her career, Tonya GJ Prince has had the honor of encountering thousands of bold and courageous Survivors. With discretion, she shares one of those stories here.  She was just a child when the abuse began—hidden behind closed doors, dismissed by those who should have protected her, and ignored by a world that found it easier to believe in appearances. By the time she was a teenager, she had learned the brutal truth: sometimes, the people who demand your trust are the very ones who will betray it the worst. When she spoke up, her family turned on her. They insisted she was “making things up.” And when she refused to play along with their comfortable illusions, she was cast out—left to navigate the world alone, vulnerable, and without a place to call home. This episode is for every Survivor who has been pressured to keep secrets, to pretend, to play nice in the name of family or community peace. We refuse. We will not pretend that people are who they claim to be. We trust our own eyes, our own experiences, and our own truth. We will not go along to get along.
