Agape Garcia's life (and that of her 8-year-old and unborn baby) pivoted without warning.  Hundreds of miles from home, they unpacked to start a new life chapter.  Without warning the father of her yet-to-be-born son viciously tried to kill her.  She had no resources, no support, yet reestablished herself, raised her children alone and now (years later) finally feels free enough to talk about her personal experience of domestic terrorism at the hands of someone she once loved and trusted.  Agape will also describe her path to post-traumatic growth in the hopes others can do the same.
