Growing up in a home where she had to withstand physical, mental, verbal, emotional and sexual abuse, Alreen Haeggquist was desperate to escape her reality. After failed suicide attempts, Alreen’s journey took a turn when she realized going to college would give her the opportunity to escape the abusive environment. Through therapy and a lot of intentional work to overcome Alreen turned her traumatic past into a mission to help other women stand up for themselves and own their power. Alreen has a fervent passion to advocate for women who suffer from sexual abuse, harassment or discrimination. As a lawyer with 21 years of experience, she has recovered millions of dollars for clients in cases involving sexual harassment, discrimination, retaliation and wrongful termination. In addition, Irene has an unwavering commitment to not allow wealth, power, influence or status to exempt anyone from the rules of society.

Quotes
“When you’ve been abused, when you’ve experienced trauma, t doesn’t just leave you because you’ve left it.”
“If I change my beliefs, I can change the entire experience I'm having about them.”
“When more women can see that they are not alone, and if they talk about it, it's actually going to help them. By keeping it inside, the only person you're hurting is yourself. Speaking out, the only person you are helping is not only yourself, but others around you to give them the courage to stand up and say something.”
“Even if you don't want to take action, at least know what actions you can take.”
