Trisha Bailey is a remarkable woman. The Jamaican-born mother of five has achieved something extraordinary in her life - becoming the richest woman in her country's history. Her net worth is a staggering $700 million.
But her path to success hasn't been easy. She grew up in an impoverished home in St. Elizabeth, and endured distressing experiences of sexual and domestic abuse. Only recently has Bailey shared her story in her memoir, Unbroken: The Triumphant Story of a Woman's Journey. At a book signing at Martha's Vineyard, she moved the audience to tears with her story.
Bailey then attended college and became a stockbroker on Wall Street. She also became a pharmaceutical sales representative, and was in four abusive relationships. After a near-death experience 13 years ago, Bailey was in a coma for eight days. Upon arising from the coma, Bailey had a business idea and launched her medical supply business in 2011.
Since then, Bailey has gone on to build an impressive empire. She's a founder of 15 companies and a global real estate owner. She has stakes in the Atlanta Hawks, Charlotte Hornets, and Phoenix Suns. Bailey has donated millions of dollars to various organizations, including the largest donation in UConn athletics' history, where she ran track and field.
Through it all, Bailey's faith never wavered. She has sought therapy and attributes her healing process to eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, a therapeutic process to help people heal from traumatic experiences. "I know that my business success is not normal," Bailey said. "I know it is a blessing from God, like my entire life. But having grace and being kind and caring and loving blesses your business."
Trisha Bailey's story is an inspiring tale of faith, resilience, and kindness.
