She was broken and angry. In her despair, she turned to lesbianism in search of the love she craved for many years. She tried reliving it with other women only to be left more broken. Her redemption started when she went to a church. Now, she is a powerful preacher, author, and wife.

Ruffin was born on 31 December. Her age could be 33 or 34 years old. She grew up in a broken family. Her parents divorced when she was young and her mother had tried to abort her. As she grew up, the spirit of rejection followed her.
Ruffin went through rejection multiple times. Her father was never there for her to give her the love and care she desperately wanted. When she was 11 years old, a young man in his freshman year molested her for close to 4 years. This experience deepened her shame and rejection.
She got her first instance of love when her school teacher started appreciating how she looks, her hair, and her personality. Ruffin got obsessed with the love from her teacher. She wanted more. Gradually, she started getting attracted to girls.
