Rachel Cargle is that rare sort of phoenix who rises from the ashes
of her life not only reborn on the personal level, but also fully
ready to change the world ... an elegant, thoughtful, vulnerable,
and inspiring memoir
*Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Big Magic*
Dazzling -a loving, bold tale of imagination, bravery, and radical
action in the face of injustice
*Elle*
Profoundly moving and powerful ... you will leave these pages
changed for the better
*Gabrielle Union, author of We're Going to Need More Wine*
Beautiful ... This book is not meant to be simply consumed but
explored
*Joy Harden Bradford, founder of Therapy for Black Girls and author
of Sisterhood Heals*
Cargle recounts how she spun silk out of the thread bare yarns of
patriarchy and white supremacy while reminding readers that such
alchemy is possible ... if we give ourselves permission to
re-imagine our existences
*Sonya Renee Taylor, author of The Body is Not an Apology*
