We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves. (Romans 15:1 KJV)
NEW BEGINNINGS
Listen attentively, if you, to Lakeisha Wilson as she explains in great detail why it is imperative to esteem others daily highly than herself, as we are encouraged, according to Philippians 2:3.
“Well, if you look back over my life from year 2004 until 2007…then the domestic violence roller-coaster ride I venture off into…if you see a sister, friend, or mother going or headed in that direction, I will lay myself to the side and put a stop to what they are doing,” Wilson told Making Headline News during a recent interview. “If they allow me to and begin to educate them, (I will) show them some love. We need to tell one another the truth about things and stop keeping our story like it’s top dog secret.
“No, it’s for self-examination and for the next person to be healed, warned, delivered and be (set) free from it. I wouldn’t wish what I went through on my worst enemy. I will help my enemy as well. I don’t want that person’s innocence to be taken away and, if I can do anything to stop that, I will do just that. Educating and teaching, I love doing it because God gives me a revelation out of it every time.”
To her credit, Wilson is alluding specifically through her immeasurable body of work as the face of Let’s Talk About It LW, her Taylors, South Carolina-based nonprofit organization that has become a fixture for helping people from various walks of life to recover from some of life’s tumultuous obstacles and, most importantly, to become versions of themselves.
MORE ON WILSON: http://www.letstalkaboutitlw.org/
Powered by the slogan, No More Secrets, Let’s Talk About It LW has developed a keen commitment to helping batter individuals to cry out of an abused child that no one ever hears about, as mentioned in detailed synopsis of Wilson’s featured endeavor at https://www.letstalkaboutitlw.org/.
Moreover, Let’s Talk About It LW is especially effective, particularly with regards to steering youngsters (ranging specifically in ages 3 to 11) past the dreaded signs of sexual abuse, as well as the following issues:
- Temper tantrums
- Sexually-transmitted infections
- Keeping secrets and not talking as much as usual
- Not wanting to be left alone with a certain person
- Issues that cause them to feel angry for no obvious reasons.
- Mood swings (“one moment they are happy, then all of sudden they are super sad,” Wilson said) and,
- Starting to wet the bed or soiling their pants
Interestingly enough, Let’s Talk About It LW has emerged as a notable game changer for tackling the changes in behavior, most notably when children encounter the following:
- Avoid particular places, people, or locations.
- Have problems sleeping
- Grade drops in school
- Rebelling against everything authoritative figures tell them to do and,
- Experience a strange way of talking to adults due to the fear that has been placed on the inside of them
“These are signs that they use to get your attention because in their minds have no other way (to process these issues),” a spokesperson for Let’s Talk About It LW said.
By all accounts, Wilson doesn’t shy away from the notion that her credible nonprofit organization was birthed amid a rash of personal experiences and tragedies.
“My family and my immediate family and I have dealt with the hurt of sexual abuse, molestation, domestic violence early in life,” Wilson explains. “As I got older, I found my purpose in life. All the agony, the frustration, the pain, the days and nights, I had to fight, it all was turned around for my good. I don’t want anyone to go through what I’ve been through. It has become a drive within to have compassion for others…to prevent them from (enduring) what I went through by educating them of the signs of sexual abuse and domestic violence and how to heal from it and to overcome it, as well as to forgive so they can be free.”
A native of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, Wilson attended Hattiesburg High from 1993-1996 before ultimately acquiring her GED.

Consequently, she earned an Associate Degree from Brown Mackie College, then garnered a licenses and certificates in Property Management, Etiquette, as well as in ministry as an ordained minister.
As for her fervent rise as the face of a nationally-acclaimed nonprofit organization, Wilson said she is forever grateful that God has strategically set her aside for His use for such a pivotal season as now.
“(I’m determined) to see people of all races to be delivered and set free,” Wilson said. “(I want to know it’s okay to) forgive the abuser. (I want to) be able to help them and to know they have a smile on their face, not just being content, but being a blessing to them through the spirit of Lord God Almighty.”
