Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

She Rises is the raw, honest memoir of a woman who had every reason to give up - and didn't.

Born in regional New South Wales, she survived a childhood marked by abuse, neglect and loss. By sixteen she was homeless, using hard drugs and carrying wounds nobody helped her heal. By her early twenties she was 42 kilograms, drinking a bottle of rum a day, and falling apart.

What followed was a decade-long journey through addiction, recovery, an abusive marriage, single motherhood, and a breakdown that brought her to the edge of a clifftop. Through it all she rebuilt herself - got sober, studied accounting, raised three children alone, and found her way back to herself.

This is not a polished story. It is a real one. Written for every woman who has ever been told she would never amount to anything - and is still fighting to prove them wrong.

She rises.
