Angela Levens (YaYa LeVens)

This woman has lived on a wild roller coaster called life. I Do NOT follow the path of least resistance by any stretch of the imagination. I go where the grass grows tall and there are lots of wonderful things that can be seen and touched; thereto I can get caught up in the pickers as well. My experiences are varied and many, I could be called a jack of all trades and a master of none. I wear many hats, some at the same time. I am a master multi-tasker if that is possible, and could at times be referred to as a whirling dirvish.

My sense of humor has come from my life experience's and sometimes the funny comes from the darkness I have experienced. I am passionate, love with great depth and will do whatever I can to make your world right if I love you. I speak my mind and sometimes don't have a great filter, but with me you know where you stand. I have been told I'm "DYNAMIC", which I think might mean that I'm loud and gesticulate a lot.

I've had 7 children, spread out over the period of twenty years; that in and of itself has been a career and an adventure. Anyone who has ever had a teenager in the house knows that you have your hands full. But it truly has been my most rewarding and life altering growth experience EVER!!!!

I am a SURVIVOR of Domestic Violence!!!! I am passionate about changing the laws on how these things are handled. I have run the gamut with the legal system and at times been failed by it. I want to create dialogue aobut these things as the statistics are staggering; 1 in 4 women will experience some form of domestic violence in her life. I am determined to stand up and speak for those who cannot speak for themselves; I hope to help make a change in our society so that this is not the case for much longer.

I love to write and have started an outline for a book, based on my life. As I said in the beginning, it has been a wild roller coaster ride. I hope that somewhere along the line I can shine a light for those who are floundering with all of the challenges and obstacles that life throws our way.

In the Spotlight

Until When???

When you "just leave", but it isn't enough. When seven years later you're stalked and tormented, abused and punished; despite "just leaving".
