Sommaire:
As a child, Harmony was sexually abused and raped by multiple people. She ended up in a group home at age 17, where she first encountered social workers and began to dream about one day making a difference in peoples ́lives. She discovered, however, that despite her dreams, the abuse and pain from her past continued to hold her captive. She found herself walking straight from a troubled adolescence into an adulthood entrenched with dysfunctional relationships and a life inside the walls of a strip club working as an exotic dancer. She continued down this path for several years, until committing herself to a journey of healing that radically changed her life. Godś heart was deeply pained by her brokenness; He wanted nothing more than for her to see her own beauty and worth - to help her see the value she never saw in herself. He took the hollow and empty pit inside her that had been carved out by a lifetime of disappointment and despair, and He filled it with hope, love, and purpose. Harmony Dust now runs 'Treasures', a nonprofit organization based in Los Angeles that helps women in the sex industry to make healthy life choices.
