Love's All That Makes Sense: Anika Francis

Anika Francis, co-author of Love's All That Makes Sense, shares what it was like to grow up with a mother with schizophrenia. Four years old when her mother was diagnosed, Anika became a child caregiver at a young age. Anika describes how she was traumatized as a child by her mother's mental illness and how this impacted her well into adulthood. Her struggles led her inward where she found resilience, focus and the strength to thrive. Her yoga and qi gong practices were instrumental in helping her heal from the impact of her childhood.
