Publisher's Synopsis
In Greek mythology, the Phoenix is a powerful and majestic bird that despite its circumstances is able to recreate itself and rise again, often from the ashes that were intended to destroy it. Much like the story of the Phoenix, Cassandra Anderson's memoir, Rising From the Ashes: A Journey from Trauma to Healing, explores the life trajectory of a young woman who was determined to succeed and overcome the obstacles she faced.
Rather than allow roadblocks to impede her, she used them to find her strength and develop her own voice-one that now empowers other women. From enduring childhood trauma to overcoming professional insecurities and setbacks, this riveting memoir will challenge its readers to think about their own lives and how they too can rise from the ashes.
