thank you so much for having me I'm so excited it's such a thing with you and for audience we have the most incredible listeners to the show because this show really is about how do you lead this unlimited life and I remember reading a book one and I think I was sharing this with you and there is a little boy and the book and he starts laughing from the airplane and he says don't you think it's funny they put lines between two dates between states and I always loved that that the separation of how we get to the other side what is the other side and for those that are new to you and to your work I would love to talk to you about both sides of and coined the the life that you led thank has brought you to today's work and in this incredible work that you're helping people today cross over to the other side as well

that sounds great so you just tell me where to start to go back to your childhood because I think a lot of times we talked to people are bad to channel Texan Airlines and we had on the Los Angeles Fire Chief on the shelf and I asked you did you know did you know you wanted to be sure the fire department could not at all I wanted to be an astronaut, but I wanted to ride the traffic and I love the answer and so that it didn't even know when you were little girl that you would be the one who would be helping others on this back oh my God you know anyone who's read my book knows that my childhood hero I mean you think most people would be you know what I mean Carrie the movie

yeah and my aspiration was to be a hippy so I'm doing something any thoughts of being I think I did as a child

power it was the only way I could think I'm going to get any power of the bite out of vehicles or something

that's incredible for those of you that are in other countries that are listening from Walter except Africa France wherever you are very popular movie teenage girl could wreak havoc in Terror in the most malicious vicious wave and at the same time that you your heart broke for her

right I mean Cherry. Back at everyone that hurt her she was an innocent child that was bullied which is big now you know the whole bullying thing and she just got back at them and they did Kimberly Peirce Just a Dream Carrie so there's actually a new one out there and to tell me a little bit about your childhood because I know it was not Lollipops and Roses and sunshine and I think that a lot of the show are very much in the same boat that you are there has is not deveined a boy to Shorewood lost his lead and very happy adult life right next to the co-pilot in the cockpit but he was on travel every couple of days a week you know we have nice things I mean lived in a nice neighborhood called the Estates I grew up to it

Hebrew school and physically abusive on me and I'm to level that no kid should have to endure and I was suicidal from the get-go I truly thought as a child God must hate me for something I did in the past life like maybe I was awake through something because I could not reconcile why if there was a God he would have cut me here so I must have done something really bad to him. He did me and my dad hated me and that's where we were starting

you know what is a question for you that I've never had any guess I guess because you've offered this incredible book punished her purpose of teaching right out your Ranger anger or fear is journaling right cousins towards my cuss words with my daughter and God because I thought maybe if I could see myself down places tears I mean

I'm sure it look like I was the crazy kid because nobody could nobody on the outside of our family could figure out what the heck is going on with this kid and that's about it if you want to call that Journey when did you tell anybody any teachers or no in the house and not everyone else was playing it off like nothing was going on and of course there was maybe some possible sexual abuse going on with the one of my sisters and nobody's acting like to see psychiatrist psychologist therapy I'm not a lot I was on medication for schizophrenia for a couple of years once a year that would put wires in my brain I can just called to see what was happening in our house was the Lord he's acting crazy we don't know why I'm going to do this you know because better for people outside of the house to think it's Lori and her family

what I thought as a kid's not messages if you tell anybody what's going on your house looking crazy so I didn't trust the people inside of the house so why was it outside so what happened was when I was 13 right up my buttons but my mom has left us alone with my dad started to escalate I look a lot like my mom so he's only got worse and one day I had a friend at the house and he didn't realize I had someone there and a beating erupted and that would be the first time anyone would ever see what occurs in our house and the little girl can you call their parents and said you have to come over here and get us Lori's being hurt and the parents took me over to the house and they talk to us they talk to me about what was going on I did not say anything I'll let you know I was very conflicted and as matter fact if you ask me like how did you feel that someone finally found out I felt embarrassed and dirty I felt crazy I feel like something's wrong with her family

so I was embarrassed and I didn't talk much and I think when they got on the phone with my dad and realized I was suicidal identity psychiatrist I'm feeling I'm hitchhiking I mean I was crazy or anything for power and control in my life so I was getting into a lot of bad behavior I think these parents just too much for us to get into thinking of how the heck am I going to deal with this now that people know and he hit his handgun called the police and told them that I had it and I was going to kill him so the police show up unexpectedly I don't know why the police are there and they take me to award for the criminally insane and I was tied to a bed and it straight jacket and drugged

and I got to tell you on the heels of my Thomas food way too much to reconcile for anyone that's not true about Mrs supposed to be a time as like uniting with God and right now it was for me it was like if there is a God it is clear that you hate me like if I was there was any questioning about mental Asylum straight jacket it's clear I've got the message and the next 10 years were Colossus colossal down fall into my own private hell

well I want your mother during all of this will my mom had left New York and she came California so yes she was calling back to the house and they would say I was high plains four months I really truly did not know how long I was in that a sane insane asylum until I recently got my records from right but I was in People magazine they had me pull all my records and must have been you know months that she's been calling before she started interrogating people in the area and found out from a doctor that a kid went to the same thing this island and she got me out but I didn't she didn't have enough money to get me to where she was she was just a young woman trying to get her life together didn't have any money so I went to a group home in Stony Brook New York and that's where I met other people like me for the first time in my life other little children that have been abandoned and abused and for the first time in my life I would bond to another human being I mean a real bonding like

these are my family needs little kids that are just so strong that I've been singing tells you what they've been through that's. Young it's just so heartbreaking and at the same time

now it's so incredible crew comes juvenile hall running the streets and by the age of 16 I started shooting up someone offered me a needle and some drivers at school and I thought this is good because I wanted to Sidell and I thought it might kill me and then by the time I was 18 I was addicted to drive had a daughter and exited out of homelessness and started working the streets of the prostitute and my mom came and took away my daughter which was a good thing because she wasn't safe with me out there and it was 50 kidding at the end for me which were the years of working the streets with a prostitute

play I forgot a child that has gone through such a journey that everybody thinks everything's okay that even when they're people that learn that you're being abused to get involved

a friend I hope all the time women scripted why do they call them back off at home and it's a builder's 90,000 kids in foster care in California long and how many foster parents do you know and most people say one if we usually they saying that and you know why because they think the kids are bad do I live in a house with foster kids I have you know for God only knows how long and they are the best looking kids

I don't know where that comes from you know they are so grateful and so inspired to do the right thing you know when someone gives them a chance

so you know I was I was on the streets by The Prostitute I was 23 years old and I was broken I remember a few days before my life was saved a man pulled a knife on me and he wanted to obviously too bad things to me and I just there and said he want to hurt me and that man was just like a Matic my soul and that means I didn't want to touch me because I was not protecting myself at all I was like you want it take it and he left he was so scared of who lied to come he left and it was a couple days later I was standing on 5th and harbor where I work the streets here in Orange county is Marion County prostitutes and I got in the back of a white car and there were two men in the front and they got on the freeway and I knew at this point of my life as bad as I thought

lyrics to looks crazy like he's trying to get somewhere and I looked around me like I was very disconnected from life for years but I could tell by the amount of cards that was traffic hour and I thought oh my God will not go through you forget I did so many horrific situation so I jumped out of the back seat and into the van to try and grab the steering wheel to make the guy on the right side of the passenger side saw me coming in knocked me in the head with fist really quick and I blacked out for the rest of the drive and I ended up in a clearing in the woods and it was nighttime and they got out in the front seat in the back of the driver had a gun and I guess a girl in the streets have killed one of their friends and Our Gang neighborhood and she was a prostitute for their plan was take across the street from the street killer in the woods and make peace with your friends desk and I was that girl and they got in the backseat and after hours of being raped and beaten and have enough freaking gun to my head

this is it this is the moment you've been waiting for your whole life just get them till you just make it all go away so I like as long as I could so that I could scare them and we could just end it and I scared them now that I think back I think they got scared to Mom's going to hear my scream cuz I was the top of my lungs and they left me for dead on the side of the Canyon Road and the next thing I know big shoes like there's someone tugging at me and there's a van with liking. Spring on the back and I wake up this big huge like man trying to pick me up and I looked down and I had a Justice shirt a ripped shirt and a lot of blood and I looked at his van and it was white tea covers on the inside and immediately a triggered my brain just coming to get the again so I started I started panicking and I started pushing

Dark Canyon Road in the middle of the night but I don't want to go with this guy and he kicked me out to his eyes and he helped you just let me help you like a flashback of my entire life all the people that had tried to help me I realized I just never trusted anyone like there was a lady that used to visit me in juvenile hall in there was a man that used to visit me to play Checkers and there was a man that used to take me to the but I always had no I don't need your help I'm okay if you help me I owe you and I don't know where I got that but I did I figured I don't want to go anymore so I'm not going to do it but this week is our day I was beat down enough to let this man helped me

don't worry

sorry for just a second of you share the story when you talk about this man has tears in his eyes and please let me help you imagine from his prospective seeing you oh my God I can't imagine I only hope that one day he sees me know how impactful that moment was in my life because that was the changing point for everything

one person having enough hope to bridge me over from the hell that I was living into the rest of my life

and then you know he he looked at The Whispers that don't know he delivered me the hospital and I went back to the street and the next day I called him an another angel of mine he was a kid that was abused when he was fourteen he left home here used to make him his family mom dad and sister would eat at the table and he would eat on the floor with a dog and he left at 14 never returned join the Marines and he was leaving his Battalion and he got shot with chocolate and he was paraplegic and this man used to come and look for me on the streets and somehow she's saving me I think he was going to talk about someone with our past and I called him and they said I need help and he said I will take you wherever you want to go so you pick me up and he took me to a sober living and the rest was history I mean and that man just enough just a peanut of host maybe not for himself but maybe enough for me and that little speck of hope that you could have for another person

do you think has nothing maybe the very spect they need that if they don't have their own hope they can rely on your help to bring them over you know

don't understand you know when you're saying that there are angels that came out of the way and that you didn't trust enough to trust and I think that in all of our lives at such a great lesson one counseling it is to try whether people respond to offer help to offer care to offer your heart.

good night because you know what even the people that thought I wasn't listening to their lesson people that told me things you'll find out later that I listen to all of it since you're working with someone that in whatever field you work in trying to help people and sometimes you get a little down to see planets for me

they all grow over time when you say that I always think of that you know newborn babies learn how to speak and you say mama dada Eyes Ears Nose mouth Mama. But as long as you're feeding that love that information that people kept trying to offer you you're like you're saying this man a peanut of light that I've never heard it so eloquent and it's so simple and it's so powerful

yeah so powerful so I get delivered to the living place and I start to talk about my secret they say You're only as sick as your secrets and truthfully these secrets like I knew my dad has a gun because my aunt rebuild it to me I never told on my dad because I wanted him to love me but I started talking about it started releasing myself from that and you know the man that saved my life be a man with a paraplegic is very into computers and when I got told her he bought me a computer but I lived upstairs apartment and I got my charger back and we were doing well and he bought me this computer but I I couldn't I had things breaking on it like the video card let bad and he couldn't get up the stairs so he walked me over the phone how to take apart my computer and this place was the springboard for a career in computers I took that I got a grant for a small school

I went to this little computer school and then I started reading and testing on all kinds of things

and it feels a career in I eventually was a program manager at one of the biggest aerospace companies in the world and no one knew about my past into a magazine and all I needed to get started and before that when I was working the street that he can have anything nobody offered me anything and then when I got sober parallel to everything going on in my career abuse kids started showing up in my life and I tried you don't seriously I was babysitting a young girl who is 12 and her mom never came back

your mom is it up dying and I apply to be a foster mom attend because I had this little girl my daughter was 9 she was 12 and they looked at my record and they said absolutely not your prostitute of stolen goods at me all kinds of crazy stuff this is not what we do with this is not a person to buy the time seven years to Marana is taking in so many kids there were like foster mom and that's when my life exploded so my amazing life is just crazy I actually have had 31 children I have three kids that live in my house today I have a new young boy coming on Monday I have 10 grandson's one granddaughter and an amazing amazing life you know end

people say to me all the time nor you do such great things you're an angel and seriously that doesn't beautiful young children that have been abused and I bonded with them and now I'm bonded with anybody who's been abused right so when they call me with the kids and that's what the social workers do they'll call me and let me tell you about a kid that's all I have to hear the most people would say okay if they're saying this kid shot out this kid's been a prostitute is kids Qatar most people with back away unfortunately when I hear that I'm like oh oh my god when can I get this kid because I know but I have blocked

out and I know the pawscout and because of that you know when I was a kid and I used to think God hated me for something I didn't pass life I know now that he loves me so much how could I not see it he gave me the exact path that I needed to walk to everything they've been through and walk out of the darkness and I can walk with them out it's every day of my life that has been so beautiful now that I see what it's giving me now that I see that I have the ability

to take others inhale them because of what about you by always listening and you're going through something obviously probably not something that I went through this horrific story I just told you but anything you have cancer if someone in the family has someone in the family if we go through things and I constantly scared herself and say why is this happening to me we've lost the time I think we go through things so we can be there to help so many others that will travel that path because of power in that the tower and having made it through that you are registered scannable you know anybody that's been through anything now sort of charity for this thing they've been through when they gets the other side and if you don't sit there and think about yourself and you'll never you never even miss the point of everything that you could have created for the people that have dogs in the same thing solutely absolutely night

and that they didn't think that you know you should put your background that you would be able to foster children and so I would like to look at as kid show up and for anyone who's interested in fostering and I think that you know people not listening to this how can you not be interested in fostering and what's the first thing you sired to how do you make someone feel safe

you know it's funny because it's always different especially in a little boy that's moving in on Monday it's different with a boy I have you know 30 my girls and my son was my only son and he was took my key and I my baby when he was 11 and he died when he was 22 a different conversation so some kids get here and we start talking and immediately they're open and you know I just and I tell them you know what my house you're going to be living like a normal kid which is really a big relief because so many foster kids have so many rules you know you can only eat during this time you can only do this you can only do that the normal house

I try and get new sheets for the bed before they come in so there's not you know when you're in a hotel or are you staying at a friend's house and it's not and I'm not saying a batch now I'm just saying there's everyone has their own kind of Aroma even if it's just you know like a perfume smell everything you see no it's all you it's all yours that's so important and just to let them know they can be themselves I have one little girl that stayed in her room for the longest like isolated and it was okay and she wore all black would like a black hoodie on and we had to be all did not bring attention to the fact that you're spending a lot of time in her room or that she always wears black and we just loved her up and one day she walked out her hair was freshly why

her head was down and she was wearing a pink sweatshirt and we were all but we did not let it show but we knew for her that was the Breakthrough you know so just to let the kid beware the kiddos and to love them up where they are is is everything to not try to do it the way you think it's best done

so the kids don't get along you know it went when you bring him here. Let me tell you I love each other and are also diverse I'm in every way diverse and religion diversity of beliefs diverse in their Lifestyles that they all they love each other just like kind of like I did when I was a young kid and I think it's because we talked so much about what happened but like I don't know about 7 years ago

I will let me tell you when people call me an angel especially my sponsor who is like a mentor to me and my life is like Laurie's got like thirty you know what I mean in the morning every night I thought it was my sprinklers like that sprinkle my lawn but I looked and I started talking about you know stay sober I have like a sober group and one of the men and one of them is an American Indian he said the spirits. The loudest at 3 a.m. and he American Indians could tell you that that's part of our core beliefs

God box I call it was a prayer box when things are driving me nuts I would write it down so it in the Box one of my kids made me this box in Woodshop my daughter and

yeah I started writing notes you know funny thing when I first got sober I had this problem with God but I thought he was punishing me and the lady told me so I had seen a movie about God when I was a little girl so I actually crazy George Burns so I've been praying to George Burns for several years wow okay so I can write notes to George like what the heck is going on and all of a sudden I started getting invited to all these strange things and things to try and find out why my life was dead and I got I got a dime recommended by the County supervisor for The Advisory Board which only has a handful of people there that must be completely lost my file at this point they gave me a waiver for my past but being on the board I think it was because I was taking the worst kids you know

any kid they couldn't place they call me with that kids and what I found out his kids are leaving foster care all over the country on her 18th birthday and 65% were going homeless that wasn't 65% of 25000 of youth kids that we're taking a time when you think of those numbers are you kidding me Piper's son of them are going home with me if you think of it as a little kid that was abused out of their house by County officials and they said it's going to be okay or text you from the abuser you're going to a new family and then you're in the new family and love their kids are planning on going to college and doing problems and things like that and the other kids at school you're planning to B-Dubs

I'm not going to leave you on the street with no money no car no cell phone and sometimes but if you're lucky look like you straight from court to your homeless shelter

this was devastating to me oh my God I could not believe this is happening in America and still today I believe it's like one of the biggest secrets that has the word Keisha Nicole if you Google emancipation in 1989 this has been happening 50% of kids from Foster Care today this is seven years later we'll still go how much more than 18 months and I couldn't believe it. I had met some people in this is what I'm talking about planting the seed but said things to me one man said he talked in such a way that he could transmit his vision to the hearts and the minds of the people in such a way that they could see his vision in their mind and they could feel it penetrated even though it didn't exist and if you could talk in that kind of a way people listened to you and they will follow you

if you take a bunch of fleas like fun can you put these fleas in a jar and you screw the cap on if it's yours like for in a 3in for fear of hitting your head even if you let the fleas out of the job because what happened to you with so many years ago and I see you holding yourself back when everything's available to you and let you know I was still happy to be alive and have my daughter back and I'll be beautiful kids that people believed in me at sometimes more than I can't believe in myself and Nike saw something in me that I didn't clearly see and then the last one wasn't elderly woman that was like

and she was with me I should look down like she was thinking and then she looked up at me and she said Lori one day you're going to be a little girl swinging on a swing and the next day you going to be an old lady make sure you do in this lifetime what you would care to do before it ends because your life is going to go by like that and then she snaps real loud and it now standing here Nicollet 51 I got to tell you she was so bright and I feel the pressure right so out there after I learned about what was happening to the kids and started talking about it I'm within a month I had like a hundred $400 and he's got to do something here $10 your twin. $20 and I started at sharetea on LegalZoom

Somerton 10 months I had $180,000 in the little bank account and I was like oh my God what are we going to do and following me and my best friend Linda was helping me and then it was like a real estate agent she said let's buy a little house and let's take them home with girls who put them in the house and let's get them to college whatever we have to do so we bought this 3-bedroom house and I wasn't happy with it I believe weary live reflects on how you feel about yourself and it was kind of like a broken-down old house but we bought it anyway cuz we knew we had to get them in shelter and a bunch of them that was following us a tour and construction set this is not good enough looking to knock it down keep a couple wall. Going to knock it down and we're going to build a brand new house and each kid will get there on real wood floors a beautiful beautiful house and we took five girls off the street designers came in and they decorated each room like there's that Marilyn Monroe room there's a green room

decorated differently we could find homeless girls off the street and I was like 14 years old and we got healthy into Cinema I remember the day was hit by a car when she was 6 crossing the street alone and no one came to the hospital to sign consent and she got placed in foster care just got accepted to Loma Linda University Dr. We were like oh my God

probably on the weekends. Describe all the shelters around the United States until the database so we could do like a hotels.com and kids all over the country concerts online will push the states of the time we did that and then I like to know what Matthew homeless kids and cell phone homeless kids kids today you know you should check with devices everywhere cell phones like she bite a cell phone and it will respond to respond with a text saying where the shelter is closest to them within 40 seconds

unbelievable and you know what he did that and it probably take at least three weeks to build it I didn't have $15,000 is very next day I got an envelope in the mail and it said I forgot to support you last year and I wanted to call you next year so here's the last year and here's ten thousand for this year I hope you do something good with it and that was the hell they had no idea when she said they launch what has been a solution for kids all over America. They Amazing Grace zip code attitude that's how it runs the algorithm right so you do shelter 90210 99,000

and 99000 is a number that the phone number is called short code I live in 40 seconds do get something in Beverly Hills that's close to you so what a gift you think it would have stopped there but God really had big plans from Haiti every time I think he's okay. It said to be more nice. To bring this blanket Los Angeles we've got homework is all over the place and you know I live in Orange County and I drive to Los Angeles to go to work and it's God wants it it'll be so I I went to Venice Beach and I was standing in this place it was a charity that feeds homeless kids twice a week and give them clothing

and I'm standing here when I open the door and hundreds of kids walk in with like if you can have an 18 19 20 years old would like wounds on their because of shoes are one crew from walking so much with her hair and dreads and some of them with babies I'm like oh my God I sat down with them kids and I had dinner with them and I said was you guys I could not believe in the car screaming and I thought oh my God as much as these people are trying to help feed her dinner rate at 19 so I was like on fire in LA and all of a sudden I started getting donations when the Venice area and people in the greater LA area and they gave me money

someone that meant a lot to me and I need to do something good with it so he can build it and they will come and now we have come into work Shopping Center in Venice Beach and tell us their stories and we wait for them to the 18,000 shelters so that was expired and then last year I was contacted by a man who's come from a very gifted family and if you find this is movie filmed the most friends cuz he heard my story and made a movie star that I was friends with another guy that heard my story and together they would clear this place called Spray rehab free rehab and his idea was this man has struggled with addiction his idea was I want to give people the same that I had explained to me Lori I can look for one of the richest families in the country Oman Island prediction I can make a phone call and I would Rescue Me

I was on the street with people that can have a phone call to make I want to be that song call for them and I want to open for you cuz they hire me to find the movie star warehouse and the other man wanted a old Treatment Center so he did not put the money bunch of money at the conversion
