This memoir was motivated by my experiences growing up and becoming an adult. Despite all the hardships and challenges I encountered, I decided to keep moving forward. I have been abused in some of the worst ways possible, yet I never let it stop me from becoming the person I was meant to be. This tale is about overcoming obstacles and forging your own path toward the life you envision. I hope that each person who reads this will come away from it with the motivation to keep going. Thank you.
