In middle school Zoe stands out from the other kids—not just because of her bright personality, but also due to her alopecia. Despite her sweet smile and creative spirit, she becomes the target of relentless teasing and bullying.

As the taunts escalate, Zoe’s frustration boils over, leading to a violent altercation that results in her suspension. Years later, Zoe has transformed her painful experiences into a source of strength and inspiration.

Now a beloved kindergarten teacher, she dedicates her life to nurturing young minds and helping children see the beauty within themselves and others. But Zoe knows that her past approach—fighting back with fists—wasn’t the right answer.

It all comes crashing back to her when she runs into the worst bully of her life … he is an adult now but brings up all the fear and anger she used to feel. Forced to confront her choices if she wants to help a student facing a similar situation, Zoe has to find a way to show others how to stand up to bullying without resorting to violence.

Along the way, she shares her own story, showing them that it’s possible to rise above adversity and thrive. "Seeing Beautiful" is a heartfelt and empowering tale of self-discovery, courage, and the transformative power of compassion.

Join Zoe on her journey from bullied child to inspiring educator as she helps others find their strength and see the beauty in themselves (and others), no matter how different or broken they may feel. .
