We had the good fortune of connecting with Ingrid Morgan and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ingrid, how has your work-life balance changed over time?
My name is Ingrid Morgan and I am an author of 1974 survivor story a domestic violence Survivor how I got started to write about my book is that my experience in life going through it hands-on I decided to speak out and not hold it in any longer.

I started to write at a very young age and I never stopped it took me 20 years to complete my book of going to continuous life journeys and obstacles. Because of COVID-19 quarantine pandemic I found a great need to get my story out and share it with the world as domestic violence has increased and it is continuing to in these unprecedented times.

In my advice in any business is just a start and continue going you will hit certain obstacles but don’t let fear hold you back do not procrastinate just keep going and surround yourself with positive people I am all over believe in God.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Ingrid Morgan was born in Jamaica West Indies. I love to write and draw it’s my Therephy to escape everyday life struggles. I also developt the love for working with people and let my imagination run wild. I learned to turn every experience in my life into a positive for example being shot and raped I turned that around and became a domestic violence advocate that services women all around the world.
I knew one day my dream to become also would come true and I’m here to tell you if you dream it and you put your heart mind body and soul into it you can do anything. I also love to be around people I have fun and enjoy having people learn so I became a schoolteacher for over 15 years that’s my passion and it comes natural I have helped over 5000 children in my lifetime to succeed and to work at the best of there capabilities.

How to know whether to keep going or give up?

The day my husband shot me I knew I had to where is the location and find strength faith and courage to go on with a lot of prayer and friends and family to hell for motivating me to keep going on many days that depression will kick in. The day my husband shot me I knew I had to find strength faith and courage to go on with a lot of prayer and friends and family to help motivate me to keep going on many days that depression would kick in.
