Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

I was three years old the first time I climbed the hill that would raise me - not the parents who brought me into the world, but a rotating cast of grand-aunts, and a household that measured a child's worth by how quietly she could disappear into it. The Hill I Climbed is the story of what happened to me inside institutions - family, church, silence - that were never built to protect me, and what it cost to finally stop performing wellness. It is a memoir about abuse and survival, about faith that taught me fear before it taught me love, and about the slow, unglamorous work of learning to trust my own voice after years of being told it wasn't mine to use. This is not a book about moving on. It is the book I wrote instead of staying quiet.
