This is a special series in which I will be interviewing 16 girls including myself about their experiences with Domestic Abuse to educate others on the signs and experiences, as well as the impact it can have on your mental health.

The reason it's 16? On November 25th the United Nations marked this period the 16 Days of Activism against Gender Based Violence, starting on White Ribbon Day otherwise known as the International Day for the Eradication of Violence against Women, and ends on December 10th which is World Human Rights Day. I wanted to use my platform to bring more awareness to DV, and interviewed 16 pageant girls from past queens to future queens each day.

Today I will be sharing Abigail's story. Abigail is the first ever Miss Interglobal UK and uses her title to bring more awareness to current issues happening here in the UK from domestic violence, racism and women equality. She shares her story about growing up with it in the family and how she learned to process those emotions.
