Growing up in a dysfunctional family in the UK, Lucy Barnes felt lost and unloved as a child. Her mother wasn't able to be the kind of mother a child needs, and Lucy had five siblings from five different fathers. So the concept of a solid loving family was something she never experienced from a young age. Men were constantly coming and going in their home, and Lucy often found herself in difficult and dangerous situations. Eventually things got so bad, when she was 13 she kicked out of her home by her mother, and then a social worker got her into foster care.
With the foster family, for once in her life she experienced love and acceptance, but didn't know how to handle it and so rebelled. Throughout her teenage years she battled with shame and guilt, thinking of her childhood and where she had come from. When she was 16 she was kicked out of foster care and returned back to her mother's house.
But rather than letting the cycle continue, Lucy realised that the only way she would break it would be through education and she set herself an ambitious task - to study law.
This is Lucy's amazing story of how, against the odds, she pursued her dream and went to law school, and now is on her way to becoming a barrister.
Lucy Barnes had to mature at a younger age than most, and experienced obstacles in life that has made her stronger and more determined. In this podcast she shares her amazing story, and the valuable insights she has learned throughout her life.
