Marlow<\/strong> is an award-winning author, social entrepreneur and empowerment advocate whose life journey took her from growing up in poverty, teen pregnancy, and a legacy of domestic violence to the opulence of corporate America; and now to a life devoted to inspiring other women.<\/p>\n<p>A product of teen pregnancy, L.Y. grew up in a drug and crime infested project in Philadelphia, PA; escaped an unspeakable abusive relationship and put herself through 16 years of night school (sometimes with baby in tow) to earn multiple degrees including a MBA. Years later, when a health crisis threatened her work and life balance, L.Y. threw herself into the research of her first book, Color Me Butterfly &#8211; a book that has won ten awards, including the National \u2018Best Books\u2019 Award.<\/p>\n<p>The Manhattan Mercury refers to L.Y.\u2019s work as \u201clyrical . . . thought provoking and emotionally wrenching.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Her story would be notable enough given her tenacity to shatter the status quo. But it would be her courageous decision to walk away from a highly coveted, stellar 20+ year corporate career to found Saving Promise, a national domestic violence prevention organization inspired by her family\u2019s story of five generations of domestic violence, including her granddaughter, a little girl named Promise.<\/p>\n<p>She shares this heartfelt and captivating journey of tragedy to triumph in her compelling and heart wrenching memoir: \u201cDon\u2019t Look at the Monster: One Woman\u2019s Journey to Embrace a Purposeful Life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>L.Y. is also a pioneer and principal of the Harvard Learning Lab\u2014a domestic violence research and development lab for domestic violence prevention, distinguished speaker, trainer and advocate, recipient of numerous leadership, engineering, project achievement and advocacy awards, acclaimed subject matter media expert and commentator.<\/p>\n<p>L.Y.\u2019s story is the epitome of courage and determination. Her moving and timely message &#8211; an ordinary woman with an extraordinary story &#8211; has made L.Y. sought-after by mass media and multiple public and private groups, organizations and conferences. A testament to the transformative power that will inspire audiences alike to confront their monsters and tap into their passion, purpose and power.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Create beautiful, engaging social media in 5 minutes a day &#8211;<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.riseupcreatives.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.RiseUpCreatives.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Connect with L.Y.:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lymarlow.com\">LYMarlow.com<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.savingpromise.org\/\">Saving Promise &#8211; Nonprofit<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lymarlow.com\/podcast\">Stop Living With Monsters &#8211; Podcast<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2RCW0da\">Color Me Butterfly<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3hdyiiG\">Don&#8217;t Look at the Monster: One Woman&#8217;s Journey to Embrace a Purposeful Life<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/LYMarlow\">Facebook<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SavingPromise\">Facebook &#8211; Saving Promise<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LYMarlow\">Twitter<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SavingPromise\">Twitter &#8211; Saving Promise<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/lymarlow\/\">LinkedIn<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/saving-promise\/about\/\">LinkedIn &#8211; Saving Promise<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCGjTorptcbz2c8EjldJ0dYQ\">YouTube<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t Miss A Single Episode:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Subscribe<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/inspiration-rising\/id1448649388\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Apple Podcasts<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/music\/m\/Iqrp5q3bagph2t23malprd3dxvy?t=Launch_Yourself_Today\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Google Podcasts<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/42zIsXzjCibZt49xdCRvB4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Spotify<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stitcher.com\/podcast\/in-plain-sight\/launch-yourself-today\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Stitcher<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leave a quick review<\/strong>\u00a0on any of the podcast apps to tell people what you think about the show.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Take a screenshot of the podcast<\/strong> and post it on Instagram or Instagram Stories.
