"They are the same as anyone else."
That’s what Stacey Coldren wants us to remember about the families she serves.
Wellness isn’t just about looking good, it’s about surviving what tried to break you, finding your voice again, and using it to empower others. 💚
In this powerful episode of Get Set With Lissette, I sit down with Stacey Coldren, Assistant Director of Family Promise of the Harrisburg Capital Region. Stacey opens up about her personal experience with addiction in her family, 12 years in an abusive relationship, and the transformative power of safe spaces like Family Promise—first as a mother in crisis, now as a leader creating change.
If you’ve ever felt like no one would understand your story, or like healing was too far away, this conversation is for you.
Here’s what you’ll walk away with:
🔥 The truth about domestic abuse, housing insecurity, and survival
🚧 The emotional cost of generational trauma and how to rise above it
📊 Why one paycheck can be the difference between stability and crisis
🌍 The impact of lived experience in nonprofit leadership and healing communities
✨ This conversation is raw, real, and deeply empowering. If you’ve ever needed a reminder that transformation is possible, no matter where you start, this episode is it.
