The Torch: Motherwit, Guideposts and Stories of Purposeful Womanhood
This is a book of difficult conversations. As we grow, there are hard conversations we must have about who we are and who we aspire to become. This realization compelled me to give young women some real stories, from real women, with real life situations as blueprints for overcoming challenges that helped them become “purposeful women”. The contents of the book addresses issues of self esteem, relationship abuse, sexuality, plus more and what your choices can mean for the short term and the long term. The goal of this book is for young women to see themselves in the stories of the authors. To draw in and connect with young women who may feel like they are the only ones who have endured their plights. In brief simple words, “you are not alone”.

"For ALL OF MY FRIENDS who believe in "Motherwit", who trust their gut when their Mom is no longer here to talk to physically and and to the friends that are mothers to their own children physically; spiritually or just by community! I've bought 5 copies and I will gift the other 4 copies for upcoming birthdays and the holidays."

From a Reader in NY....."The Torch is my new bible! I realize it's geared to women in training, but this is something that I feel every female needs to read, over and over again . There is so much wisdom and compassion and understanding here, I can't begin to put it into words. It is a real treasure. I will be ordering more copies because I want to send them as gifts to my special people. I'm going through a particularly hard time right now and by the time I finished reading, my issues turned from feeling like they are insurmountable to being just little hiccups. I can't thank you enough for having the heart to do this. I reread my favorite books as a kind of self therapy, and this will be one that I will go back to often."
