This book captures every season of my life. I am a replica of my past, present, and still have the opportunity to rewrite my future.

All that I have been through made me understand I AM HER. The DNA of who I am has made me look at the person in the mirror.

I took control of writing my story and refused to give the pen to someone else to write for me. I have forgiven myself and moved to a place of happiness and peace.

I know my worth and love me for me. After many hours of analyzing the whole me, I made the conscious decision to look at my life with clarity.

The synopsis at the end of each chapter will change your perspective on all that you have encountered and realize you are destined for greater. You are worth every breath you breathe.
