Customer Reviews

Author of Mama and us

I found this book touching and could relate to the author in more ways than one as she strived to overcome the many lessons in perseverance. I especially related to the fact that the most vital thing that kept her moving forward was the fact that she wanted to be somebody. I am a survivor of many of the same things that this author has experienced and through self-healing and faith, was able to share those things in my very own book entitled "Mama and Us".

Addresses the personal conflicts of change

After reading this book I understand the internal dialogue that occurs when choosing to change. My attention never wavered throughout the whole book. I feel Patrice put her finger on the dynamics that occur within and around us. I especially loved the references - spiritual and personal that she used to explain the process of "doing it. Whatever "doing it" means to each individual. I have called all of my support family to recommend this book. I feel like this is an excellent book for young people so that they can realize that change is a process and not completed immediately and can expect their committment to be tested
