Synopsis

This memoir about female empowerment will captivate and inspire readers as they follow one woman's journey to loving herself back into wholeness and rediscovering her divinity. Many of the lessons learned can be applied to the reader's own life and hopefully heal or serve as an example of how powerful each person is from the inside out. The author writes about her midwest upbringing, her work at IBM and subsequent IBM lawsuit at age 27, owning, founding and growing her own successful businesses and being awarded Entrepreneur of the Year at age 39. She shares her experience of surviving domestic violence intertwined among her many awards and successes. By age 40 she is officially retired and starts an entirely new life chapter joining the Screen Actors Guild, appearing on Chicago Hope, doing stand-up comedy and becoming a singer/songwriter. At age 54 she becomes a Professor of Practice in Entrepreneurship for American University in Yola, Africa. She helps her elderly mom who is diagnosed with dementia. At age 63 she is unexpectedly diagnosed with stage IV cancer which catapults her to surrender to her divinity and experience internal peace, love joy and grace. The day after her medical diagnosis, her mom dies at age 97.
