In this episode of Golden Tidbits, we begin our conversation with Vera, who shares her story of growing up in the mountains of West Virginia. From her childhood in a two-room house without running water or electricity, to helping her family survive on the little they had, Vera reflects on a life shaped by hardship, strong family bonds, and perseverance.

Vera’s recollections are raw and real—stories of playing in the creeks, helping her grandmother keep the home, and finding joy amidst the struggles of rural life. She also touches on the darker side of her childhood, offering a candid look at the sensitive topics of loss and abuse, while shedding light on the resilience that shaped her life.

Join us as we listen to Vera’s heartfelt memories in Part 1 of her journey.
