About Lovern Gordon
Advocate | Speaker | Author | sur-THRIVER
After winning her 2nd consecutive pageant title (both in 2010), Lovern worked tirelessly to promote ‘Awareness Around Domestic Violence’ (DV) as her platform. The following year, she subsequently founded the Love Life Now Foundation, after becoming certified as a D.V. Advocate.
Through her DV awareness work, she’s been able to give an in-depth look at the effects of abuse from different perspectives (as a young adult survivor from a 2-year relationship and as a child witness to it). She continues to be a sought after speaker around the issue, conducts DV workshops, (globally) surrounding it, alongside a nationwide book tour with her DV memoir, The Legacy He Left Me.
