Synopsis

"Recalling her own struggles with depression, the author of this energetic medley encourages readers to get out of their shells, take charge of their lives and believe in themselves despite reverses and naysayers." -Kirkus Review "Time has come for you to dare. Be humble; you’ll get what you want at last. Believe; don’t accept one iota less. You have everything you need; now, Dare!"

With compassion and enthusiasm, Rise explores topics with which many individuals will identify, while also offering a vantage that is groundbreaking and contemporary.
