Answer:
Family lost everything in a hurricane, went bankrupt and couldn't afford a normal life.
Step-by-step explanation:
- When Noelle was a young girl, her family lost everything in a hurricane and they went bankrupt eventually. It was hard growing up as a teenager for Noelle as she had to take responsibility of her younger siblings and at the same time work extra hours to pay for her tuition and college.
 - After she graduated, she again lost her job, money, security and everything within just a week. However, that was the turning point of her life. Noelle then moved to Hawaii and started afresh with a whole new perspective of life.
 - She learned to love, interact with different people and learned new things daily. She started to appreciate herself, did what she loved the most and grew every single day. 
 - Her hardships made her realize that if one falls down hard, it only means bouncing back stronger.
