Catalina's Story...

On September 11th, born to a 16 year old drug dealer and a 23 year old prostitute, the odds were stacked against this little girl from Brooklyn, NY. Hear her story about survival, perseverance, and success.

"Life is an ocean, your drowning, tired, and maybe you're wanting to give up. You learn to swim, then float...until the waves come and you're swallowed up, fighting to live once again. That's when you have to learn to ride the waves, flow with the current, face the sun and take control of your experience..." - Catalina Gonzalez
