This week on Trauma Behind The Glamor, hosted by Rah MrTraumaTalks, we sit down with Shardèi Louis, a runway model, actress, clinical mental health counselor, and CEO of Transitions, a clinical case management organization dedicated to structured support and holistic care.

Shardèi’s life reflects the intersection of beauty, trauma, leadership, and resilience. As a domestic violence survivor and mother of a special needs child navigating post traumatic stress disorder, she shares what it truly means to survive abuse while building a professional life rooted in healing and advocacy.

Beyond the runway and performance spaces, Shardèi brings clinical expertise, academic research, and executive leadership into the conversation. Currently pursuing her Master’s in Public Administration, and having written graduate level research on race, workplace diversity, and organizational restructuring, she speaks boldly on systemic change and personal accountability.

This episode explores what happens behind the glamor. The trauma no one sees. The strength required to rebuild. And how lived experience can become leadership.

Hosted by Rah MrTraumaTalks, this conversation is about survival, systems, motherhood, mental health, and reclaiming power on your own terms.
