We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Demetria Goode. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Demetria below.
Demetria , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Let’s kick things off with your mission – what is it and what’s the story behind why it’s your mission?
I’m a survivor of domestic violence- brutally beaten and stabbed six times! I share the good, bad and ugly of abuse! I was abused as a child – my company The Goode Fight is built off me sharing my life experiences to others – so I started sharing others life experiences through my platforms and created a podcast Unfiltered Unspoken.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
In November of 2021, CEO Demetria Goode, founded The Goode Fight, LLC after she was brutally beaten and stabbed by her Ex six times in 2013. Burdened by trauma and pain, she believed it would stop in death, and attempted to take her own life. Demetria’s plan was interrupted, when her youngest daughter described how much she loved and adored her. From that point she took on a new, positive, and fresh outlook on life.
Determined to heal, she began the process of loving herself in the past, present and future. Obstacle after obstacle, Demetria started to confront, accept and acknowledge what it was she did have control over in her life. The road to healing would form the foundation and basis of the inception of The Goode Fight.
The mission of The Goode Fight, LLC is to positively impact the lives of victims affected by domestic violence or life trauma. We strive to complete this mission by making connections and sharing life experiences in a group setting, or in individual sessions. The Goode Fight’s vision is to help others with support they may not otherwise have within a space free of judgment.
Demetria is a firm believer that opening up and sharing your story within a welcoming community through the platform of The Goode Fight will help others going through similar experiences.
My Bio sums most of it up with vision and mission and what the platform does. We sell tshirts, candles, bracelets, create short videos and flyers to raise proceeds.
We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?
I had to unlearn hiding from my traumas, I learned to face them! I had to unlearn having blackout traumas as a child and face the abuse I went through. Facing those traumas will help you start to heal!
Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?
Sharing my life to the world has brought beautiful people in my life! People that are healing and sharing their life experiences to help others! All of my platform share positive healing messages and resources!!
