I have a wonderful partner and together we have built a happy and contented life for ourselves with two beautiful children, I have a job which I love and have recently started a foundation degree. Life is good,

However I have to live with something which has had a huge impact on my life since I was child, throughout my teenage years and now as an adult. I grew up with an alcoholic parent, the effects of this are longlasting to put it mildly and when my worst fear of my father dying due to alcoholism became a reality in December 2013 I felt it was time to share my story in the hope that it could be the start of making changes and finding answers to this dreadful disease. My journey so far has introduced me to a whole new world of writers, research and opinions which has been great!

My name is Natacha Williams and I am 41 years old. I was born in Jamaica Queens N.Y. on December 3. I am the oldest of girl of six, 2 sisters and 3 brothers(One is deceased). I am a wife and a mother of 8 kids, 7 boys and 1 little girl. I graduated from Wake Technical Community College with an Associate Degree in Business and several certifications under my degree. I have been through so much in my life as a teen mom, a single mom, abuse as a young girl and a near death experience. I am the founder of a non-profit organization: "A Lost Girl 2 A Virtuous Woman" and also writing my first memoir: "From Lost Girl to Virtuous Woman-I'm Still Standing." I know that I have a purpose to fill and I have been chosen and appointed for a time such as this. My vision is to help and encourage as many lost girls(as I was) to becoming virtuous women(my journey) and to know their worth(as I didn't). I am here to serve you. My very first book, "From Lost Girl To Virtuous Woman: I'm Still Standing." Will be released in 2016. Be on the look out for a life changing book.

My Motto: "What you say today can help someone make it to tomorrow."
