Listen "#84 | Trauma Didn't Win: Actress Sierra Nowak's Breakthrough Journey"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we sit down with Sierra Nowak—a rising actress, entrepreneur, and mental health advocate. Raised in Akron, Ohio, Sierra's early life was marked by instability: a mother battling with mental health issues, a father who was a disabled veteran coping with PTSD, and a home filled with anger, substance abuse, and neglect. But Sierra's story is about more than survival—it's about transformation. Through determination, academics, and creativity, she found her way to USC, started her acting career, and launched a wellness-focused candle company, Sanctuary Candle Co. This conversation dives deep into generational trauma, healing, and what it means to build the life you deserve—no matter where you come from. ============================================================ 🔗 LINKS 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sierranowak/ 📸🕯️Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sanctuarycandle.co/ IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm9371996/ National CORE & Hope Through Housing 🌐 nationalcore.org 📘 facebook.com/nationalcore 📘 facebook.com/hopethroughhousing FYI Podcast 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fyi.findingyourinspiration/ 🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fyipodcast A National CORE Production supporting the Hope Through Housing Foundation.
