My Journey From Sewer Drain To The Boardroom
![Jese Leos](https://epilogueepic.com/author/jackson-hayes.jpg)
Have you ever wondered how a person with humble beginnings can rise above adversity and achieve remarkable success?
In my case, my journey began in the most unexpected and unconventional place—a sewer drain. I was born and raised in a rough neighborhood, surrounded by poverty and crime. Growing up, I witnessed and experienced things no child should ever go through.

But rather than letting my circumstances define my future, I chose to use them as fuel for my ambition. I knew that if I wanted a better life, I had to break free from the chains of my environment.
Education became my lifeline. I devoured books, attended every class, and sought knowledge wherever I could find it. Despite the challenges I faced, I excelled academically and won scholarships that allowed me to pursue higher education.
During my college years, I realized that I possessed a natural talent for business. I dove headfirst into the world of entrepreneurship, determined to carve my path to success. I started small by creating a handmade crafts business in my dorm room, selling my creations online and at local markets.
As my business grew, so did my confidence. I delved deeper into the business world, exploring various industries and learning from both successes and failures along the way. This journey wasn't without its setbacks, but each obstacle only reinforced my determination to succeed.
Eventually, my hard work and persistence paid off. I climbed the corporate ladder, honing my skills in leadership and strategic planning. I became known for my innovative ideas and relentless drive for success.
Fast forward to today, and I sit in the boardroom of a Fortune 500 company. My journey from the depths of despair to a position of power has been nothing short of extraordinary. Through hard work, perseverance, and unwavering belief in myself, I overcame the odds and made my dreams a reality.
But my journey doesn't end here. I have a burning desire to inspire others, especially those who come from similar backgrounds to mine. I want them to know that no matter where they come from, they too can achieve greatness.
Life is a series of choices, and it's up to us to decide whether we let our circumstances define us or if we rise above them. My journey is a testament to the incredible power of determination and resilience. If I can go from a sewer drain to the boardroom, anyone can.
So, whether you find yourself in a challenging situation or are simply searching for motivation, remember my story. Let it serve as a reminder that no dream is too big, and no obstacle too great.
Believe in yourself, work hard, and never give up. Who knows, perhaps one day we'll be reading about your remarkable journey from adversity to achievement.

Bonnie Hathcock never wanted anyone to know how humble her roots really were. As she sat in the mahogany boardroom of one of the largest corporations in the country, she worried about being worthy enough to be there. She had made it to the top as one of the highest ranking officers of a Fortune 100 corporation. She kept her background out of view, because she feared being looked down on.
That was until the day she chose joy.
Bonnie realized she was suspending the presence of joy in her life. She thought joy was something off in the future, when she wasn’t working and when she didn’t have so much pressure. Through a series of encounters with special people in her life, she realized she could be happy most of the time. She boldly embraced the pathway to unlocking her inner joy. It took work and practice. It began by confronting her shame: shame about her humble beginnings, her mistakes, and her limitations.
In confronting her shame, she made a discovery that changed her life’s perspective. Her past made her who she was and actually created the success she attained. In her struggles, she learned to overcome. In her disappointments, she learned how to hope. In the mistakes, she found how to be better.
Bonnie wrote Lilac Dreams to share the story of her youth…with its mistakes, hardships, and struggles. Despite her circumstances, Bonnie still had her dreams. Dreams of making something of her life and dreams of going beyond her own limitations.
Lilac Dreams is a book that will move you to look beyond your current circumstances, help you to push past your limitations, and affirm your worth in this world.
Bonnie believes if she can do it, you can do it.
