I’m Julissa Grozozski-Torres—Certified Recovery Peer Advocate, New York Certified Peer Specialist, and the founder and CEO of Triumph Ova Struggles Advocacy and Consulting. This blog covers part of my story. Based in NYC, everything we do is guided by the core values of Optimism, Vulnerability, and Adaptability (OVA). My journey is proof that transformation is possible: from surviving to finding purpose, from being silenced to becoming an advocate, and from enduring pain to discovering strength.
