- Cortia Bingham-McKenzie shares her unfortunate reality of receiving 30 days of beatings from her father as a child. Having endured so much trauma, one would expect a totally different character than who Cortia is; however she has interrupted the negative experience and thought process using her faith and trusting the word of God, declaring that despite ALL she knows she is fearfully and wonderfully made. Cortia is a walking-living-breathing example of finding Beauty In The Ashes!

She was broken to be blessed,I admire her got the opportunity to have met her she's a sweet soul
"My latter days shall be better than my former days." Love this session, The LORD cannot fail!!
A lot of mental health “medicine” is needed in Jamaica. Hurting your own child is a deep psychological sickness. We need to have a hug your children campaign in Jamaica. Men who abuse were abused themselves. May the Lord continue to bless and keep her. She is a gentle spirit. Sorry she had to endure such torture.
And I’m sitting here like wow which one is worse beating or sexual abuse happening both are equally as bad
Bless her Lord! She is such a strong woman.
Yendi, what you are doing is amazing! You are creating an outlet for people to be open and honest whilst helping them and others to overcome. GREAT SPACE!!!

I have to prepare mentally and emotionally. Blessings upon your guest for strength to overcome to tell the story. 🤗 Continue your great work hon🥰
Ur so right , what I do is save them and listen them over and over
Oh my goodness 😳 some of those thoughts are mines 😒This platform is so special. It is needed!!
Cortia...I saw myself in you. I deeply know that there is more. I am not ashamed of my story. I am not ashamed of my story. This episode really touched me. Thank you!
Cortia you made me cry but I love the story and what inspires me is when you said to share it so people can counteract the negative with positive; I, am fearfully and Wonderfully Made!!! Love you girl
Big up uself Yendi keep them coming🤗
Great works Yendi !!!! As a jamaican we Grew up under extreme circumstances due to poverty and ignorance
We lived in a culture that glorifies negativities and double standards we talk the talk but hardly walk the walk if we are not prepared to reprogram the negatives in all our lives then the saga continues a vicious circles. Bless up Yendi !! Your topics always brings emotions and tears!! All the best. Psychological warfare, mind sets and ignorance is killing us , we all have a wonderful brain let's all use it positively
All the way from Canada, I am faithful to tune into these interviews. Today was such an incredibly hard day for me. I cried and felt so low and this particular video spoke to my spirit. I am encouraged, inspired, motivated and loved. Thank you Yendi for providing this platform for stories to be shared and gleaned from. Narratives are shifting!!!
A heart rending story. I love how she used her trauma to move ahead. Powerful woman. God bless you and may he continue to use you to strengthen and encourage women.

Yendi and @Cortia! I am bawling my eyes out because I needed this, I've been at that place of knowing I need help but procrastinating...... I have alot of childhood hurt and trauma that I tell myself I am over but the anger I sometimes feel is an indication that this isn't so😭. Definitely taking the steps NOW! Thank you both! Nuff blessings......🙏🏽🙌🏾 #Timely #Godbless

So relatable: maybe different or similar obstacles but the Same process for EVERYONE OF US. Forgiveness is the key and is for us as He died for us.
Glory to God and His Son our Saviour, who give life abundantly and freedom indeed.
Thanks for sharing with the sisterhood. Also, let's pray our brothers will learn from this too.
Women mother/teach/raise both genders. Males lack proper male role models but we as women can redirect their perceptions of themselves also.
Thank you so much for sharing your testimony. A blessing to us all.

I HAVE NEVER GOTTEN TIRED OF HEARING YOUR STORY CORTIA BECAUSE "I TOO WANT TO LIVE". I WILL FOREVER CHERISH AND ADMIRE THE BEAUTIFUL SOUL YOU ARE SO KEEP INSPIRING AND THANK YOU FOR CONFIDENTLY SHARING YOUR STORY.
I can't find words... Cortia - thanks for sharing your story. Yendi - I appreciate that your using this platform to bring these impactful conversation to us #growth #forgiveness #weinspire
I can relate to some of her struggles. I don't why Parents think they have to abuse their children in that way. This brings me to tears.
Thank you for telling your story Cortia. So many will heal from hearing it
I felt so blessed by her story. Her journey from ashes to such beauty. I am inspired and encouraged by her honesty and transparency. What got me most was her spirit of humility, and her pointing toward the lover of her soul, the most high God. The one who she allowed to lift and elevate her into her purpose and destiny.
Continue to stay on the path and stay in God.
I am encouraged to continue on my journey.
Stay blessed!
This was so good I have to watch it again!!! Yendi the more I watch these videos the more positive I become and I have a better outlook on life. It is truly a blessing. Keep doing this excellent work!
Blessings Cortina. Your story is one for the textbooks that should be required for young ladies in understanding how to build self esteem.💜 Big up yuh nice clean, intelligent, humble self, Lady!
Blessings Yendi for this platform for us all to learn.💯
I wish I could love this a million times ! Truly inspirational.
This is a ministry. ODYSSEY is a ministry Yendi. Praise God for you
Girlllllll...I totally believe that. I've always been attracted to nerds. Always. In my experience dem tend to be super intelligent and they have excellent problem-solving skills. Dem mek more money than the athletes and entertainers and they tend to be more caring and treat women well. Ok let mi continue watching.
I watched this several times. Several things that u said Cortia resonated with me me. Funny enough , right after watching this about 2 times, I had an experience where I had to make a decision where I told myself , it stops right here. No more of this. Thanks for ur transparency Cortia. Thanks again Yendi for this program. Many persons are being helped. God the blessings of the Lord continue to be upon you both. Life is really a journey and we definitely can't choose the journey. The journey prepares us for the purpose. So it builds in which ever way God chooses.
Thanks for allowing me to reconnect with Jamaica on such an intimate level. I feel like I've found a new friend even though I've lived in NY for 3 decades. I'm also a Virgo and an Andrew's Girl!!!. I am proud of you and the platform you have created. Yendi, Keep doing God's work, may you be blessed and continue to be a blessing.
I WAS WAITING TO EXHALE HER WORDS THAT INSPIRED MY SOUL HER FAITH BRINGS ME TO A PLACE OF REMEMBERING WHO GOD IS. THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT HER STORY THAT COULD BE IN A BOOK. PERIOD.!!!!!
Thank you Yendi for creating this platform and thank you Cortia for sharing I’m at a loss for words, this is too riveting yet inspiring. I have to share this
Something keeps pulling me to watch this video and I wasn't sure why. I couldn't skipped it again, I had to watch it. Now I know why. Wow!!! Girrrrll! I could just hug you. I got so much from this. Thank you Yendz and Cortia.
The ending had me really tearing up. A word I needed this weekend honestly
God you are AWESOME to use Yendi this young woman is a blessing.
