You will be sure to find yourself while reading through the pages of our book.
 
You will be energized by survival stories, empowerment messages and learn real life how to factors that you can readily apply. We are a diverse group of women from 5 Continents. Africa, Europe, Asia, South America and North America. Each one of us bring our own unique style and flavor.
 
We have different ways of dressing. With the pandemic going on, these stories simply could no longer wait! They show that no matter your age, geography or situation, you have the power to heal, forgive, and fight for what you believe in! Through these stories, Rice-Barnes hopes that people will see the rich value in their own struggle. Who told you to stop telling your story? Testimonies don’t expire. No matter how ugly or old it is, tell it!
 
There’s real healing in that. We have accents and different styles of writing, but our messages are unified. Come and journey with us!
