A Short Story: Becoming Stronger
“Becoming Stronger” is the powerful true story of
Kumarie Francis, a resilient woman who overcame child
marriage, domestic violence, and years of silence to
reclaim her voice. From Trinidad to America, her journey
is one of survival, courage, and transformation.
This story is for anyone who has ever felt powerless,
voiceless, or alone. It's especially for survivors of abuse,
immigrant women, and young people navigating difficult
family expectations. Kumarie’s words are a reminder that
healing is possible—and that even in the darkest times,
you can become stronger.
“You are the hero of
your own story — the
one who chooses
courage, overcomes
challenges, and creates
your own path.” -
