Meet Hollingsworth

​

​

Hollingsworth is a lover of artistic expression, whether its creative writing, reciting poetry, theatre, productions, handcrafting, singing. or paint on a canvas—she has a great appreciation for it.

​

Hollingsworth also has an even deeper appreciation and passion for serving as a vehicle of hope, inspiration, and empowerment, to help men, women and youths, experiencing various degrees of trauma, or who simply feels stuck in life. As one who has experienced abandonment, abuse, poverty, loss, sexual violence, single teen-parenting, failure, dropping out of school, depression, and more, Hollingsworth understands all-too-well, the plight and reality of human suffering, and human dignity. She also understands the power of prayer, hope, and the strong will of the human spirit, when we decide to become unstoppable in the face of adversity, uncertainty, and lack.

​

Hollingsworth has spent twenty years using her life and passion to empower and support countless men, women and children in Philadelphia. She now uses her personal story, coupled with her professional experience, and her gifts of creative writing and speaking—to empower a much larger audience. She is a member and competition winner of Toastmasters International Speaker's Association.

​

Hollingsworth is the author of the book, "Not Another Tear: Moving from Pain to Purpose" with a new release pending, titled: "Victims of Circumstances: Where Pain and Possibilities Are Colorblind" (Novel), that is scheduled for release later in 2024.
