About this listen

In this powerful episode of Hydrated Mind & Soul, Amanda and Dr. Hackford sit down with Gwen McLeod—founder of We Leap, Inc. and owner of Successful Solutions Multi-Service Business Center—to talk about breaking cycles of abuse, overcoming trauma, and building a life rooted in empowerment.

Gwen shares her journey as a survivor of domestic violence, the mission behind her nonprofit, and her work in anger management, life coaching, and relationship restoration. From the impact of generational cycles to the hidden struggles men face as abuse victims, this conversation is raw, real, and filled with hope.

We dive into:

Expanding the mission of We Leap to address ALL forms of violence

How trauma triggers can shape behavior into adulthood

The “Savior Syndrome” trap and why real change starts with willingness

Breaking free from strongholds and walking in true freedom

Practical advice for anyone ready to heal and reclaim their life

Whether you’re a survivor, know someone who’s struggling, or simply want to learn how to be part of the solution, this episode offers powerful insights and encouragement.
