Listen to the podcast on Inkandescent Radio While Samavira founder Lauren Schuivens is a successful entrepreneur today, her story started off on a very different path.

Lauren became a victim of armed violence and was raped before she turned 20. Due to her early life trauma, she developed a severe eating disorder and had to deal with depression and suicidal thoughts. Her therapists said she would be dependent on medication for the rest of her life — but she decided to prove them wrong.
