Christina Johnson has proven that losing is not an option. As a mother, mogul, and business woman; Christina beat the odds. Born and raised in Charlotte, NC Christina moved her and her two young daughters to Atlanta, GA in 1997 with hopes of a more fulfilling career.
Becoming a mother at an early age, Christina talked about the obstacles she faced “Being a teen mom instantly made me the black sheep of the family. I was ostracized from some of my friends because of my choices”. Christina continued by saying, “I had to work twice as hard as my peers to graduate from high school and continue my education to college. Working a job, going to high school and staying up all night with a screaming baby was so challenging but I persevered. My children are my gifts from God and are some of my greatest teachers”.
Christina opened up about her past dealings with domestic abuse and the steps she took leaving her abuser. “The first thing I did to overcome domestic violence, was to develop an escape plan”. Christina added, “Next, I worked on myself, by healing my childhood pain in the aftermath of being abused. I learned through this experience that you can’t really move forward in your life until you heal”. Christina continued by saying, “I would tell a person facing abuse that you are valuable. You are enough! You are beautifully and uniquely made! You are worthy of God’s absolute best for you and you don’t have to settle.”
