Description

A remarkable story of turning your differences into your greatest strengths My appearance hasn't changed but my entire outlook and attitude has. Finding self-acceptance hasn't always been easy. I was abandoned at birth with a facial difference that no plastic surgeon can fix. As I got older, I began to hate my face and the world that I lived in. Gradually, through trial and error, random moments with strangers (and some tragic haircuts!) I've found self-love. It doesn't matter who you are, what you look like, or where you come from - finding and celebrating what you love about yourself will open the world up to you. This book is my story, the way I found self-love and the important lessons I have learned along the way. Discovering self-love has been a life-changing journey for me, and I hope it becomes a part of your life-changing journey, too.
