Lacey says they were in small houses with mold. The more money her dad brought into the house meant more drugs. Her mom was not there during years when she was needed. She did not have her mom as a shoulder to cry on. She was left crying on a pile of dirty clothes. I learned how to put on my own make up. I started in amateur wrestling in Florida when I was 15 years old and I was ranked nationally. When you don’t have anyone to rely on, you realize how unstoppable you are.
Imagine having to walk two miles in the rain while juggling a job and wrestling to see your dad passed out and high with a burning cigarette in his mouth. I learned how unbreakable I was. What I have been through made me motivated and ready for everything. I am no better than any of the superstars and they are no better than me.
