In fact, bad circumstances are just plain exhausting! <em>Embracing Your Story</em> is an honest depiction of a child experiencing the emotional, spiritual, and financial toll that poverty exacts. Smedley shares moving stories about growing up in Cleveland, Ohio. Her mother taught her that "tomorrow is your sacred armor against the hopelessness of today." Tomorrow holds your destiny. That is why surviving the obstacles of today is imperative. <em>Embracing Your Story</em> is a blueprint for how to survive hardships. In ten short chapters, Smedley shares stories, lessons learned, and provocative questions to ponder if you are trying to do better in life. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>"What a gift Embracing Your Story offers up to those who are interested and in need of a 'How To' book that helps them to turn their lemon filled childhood into a life of lemonade! It's practical, hands-on-approach, and chatty writing, like you are there talking to the reader - makes it all so accessible and transformative."</em> <em>Debra Lang</em></p><p><br></p><p>"<em>The stories that Ms. Smedley shares had a lot of realism and common sense for people to digest! Embracing our Story shows just how much can be accomplished when you have a burning desire to achieve your goals." Dwane McLaughlin</em></p><p><br></p><p>"<em>Her words brought tears to my eyes and reminded me of my own mother and how much she struggles to raise us. I am grateful for her sacrifices and her hard work. Because she believed in me and inspired me to work hard, soon I'll be the first in my family to graduate college." Sandra Amaya</em></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><br>
