Cassandra Ferguson, radio show host and owner of Elevation Global Media Group in Towson, overcame a turbulent early life that has empowered her to elevate and inspire others.

“I was tired of seeing other women not motivating women,” Ferguson said. “So I decided to follow Gandhi’s quote, ‘Be the change you want to see in others,’ and I became that change for others.”

“My childhood was actually very painful,” said Ferguson, 53. “Most of the time was spent visiting my father in prison.”

Ferguson said she carried that pain with her into adulthood until a sermon she heard from her pastor, Bishop Clifford M. Johnson of Mount Pleasant Church and Ministries in Baltimore, changed her perspective.

“I remember Bishop Johnson preached ‘Even if the person is no longer here, you should forgive them,’” said Ferguson. “I remember that Sunday. It was the day I really released my father.”
