Synopsis

From Repression to Freedom.
Born into a culture that demanded strict roles for women, one Manileñian refused to accept the boundaries drawn for her. This is the true story of a journey from suppression to liberation—not just for herself, but for others.
Armed with science as a chemist and inventor, she mastered the complex world of intellectual property. Fueled by a passion for justice, she became a fierce advocate for women and human rights. But her ultimate transformation lay where society least expected it: inside the concrete walls of the prison system, where, as a lay ordained Buddhist, she taught the radical art of inner peace. She knew the value of meditation and mindfulness, having survived cancer with a 5 % survival rate.
She built an egalitarian family after divorce and trauma that almost cost her life. This book is her gift to her progeny.
A deeply moving testament to the power of the intellect, the resilience of the spirit, and the boundless capacity for human transformation.
