Damaris Melo-Gyasi: Making My Way, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

From the crowded streets of São Paulo to the wide, unfamiliar skies of the American Midwest, Damaris Melo-Gyasi has spent her life crossing borders-geographical, cultural, economic, and spiritual. In this gripping and deeply personal memoir, she reveals how a young Brazilian girl with big dreams learned to survive, rebuild, and rise in a world that repeatedly told her she was "too much."

With unflinching honesty and unexpected humor, Damaris chronicles the highs and heartbreaks of forging a life far from home: navigating immigration and breaking through professional and personal ceilings, and discovering what resilience really feels like when no one is watching. Through every twist, she writes with the clarity of someone who has lived through fire-and come out shining.

At its heart, Making My Way is a powerful meditation on ambition, identity, and the systems that shape us. Damaris' story is for anyone who has dared to dream beyond their circumstances-and discovered that perseverance, faith, and grace may be enough to build an entirely new life.
