Her husband used to beat her frequently, so she took her children and ran away from home.

The woman, who had gone through multiple abusive relationships and was being pursued by one of her

ex-boyfriends, a man with mental health issues, dreamed of having a place just for herself and her children, a safe place where they could start their lives anew.

Cara Brookins from Arkansas, a mother of four, amazed the world by building a house on her own, using tutorials from YouTube.

She didn’t have the money to buy a house, so she decided to build one herself, even though she had no prior experience in construction.

“Both my kids and I needed this,” Cara confessed.
