Reclaiming Identity Through Reflection

A lifelong educator, Dr. Brent has spent her career guiding students toward purpose, identity, and self-determination. But it is her own story—one of navigating roles, expectations, and generational legacies—that has fueled her most impactful work. Her personal journey of reclaiming voice and self beyond titles and institutions gives her a unique lens on empowerment, especially for women navigating life after incarceration or personal transformation.

Champion for Justice-Impacted Women

As a featured author in The LOHM’s ongoing spotlight series, Dr. Brent reflects not only on her own growth but also on the systemic changes needed to support others on similar paths. Her insights speak directly to women ready to write new chapters of their lives, and to the communities and institutions that must evolve to support them.
