Book Title:
I Am Subject: Sharing Our Truths to Reclaim Our Selves
Book Description: As a teacher of writing and Women’s Studies, I have spent many years studying the lives and works of women writers.I AmI Am Subject Book Subject: Sharing our Truths to Reclaim Our Selves is a memoir that combines my own history with the words and experiences of other writers to examine the issues that perplex contemporary women.
This work conveys women’s experiences by weaving together memoir, literary texts and criticism, and student reflection. Simply knowing that others have struggled can bring women out of isolated suffering to a deeper sense of awareness and understanding.
Our early interpersonal relationships, combined with the societal and cultural messages we receive, influence all of our subsequent actions, including our sexual experiences, our intimate relationships, our decision to have children or not have children, our career choices, and our tendency to deal with life’s challenges either constructively or destructively.
I Am Subject provides a safe space for women to increase their awareness regarding where they have come from and where they are going as they move forward into the next stages of their lives.
It is my hope that those who read these words will sit with them, give thought to how they might apply to their own lives and the lives of women they know, and begin their own conversations regarding how to best turn increased awareness into action.

Title of Talk:
The Homeless Motivational Speaker
We’ve been taught that building a successful life looks a certain way, but what if it doesn’t look anything like it’s “supposed” to? Would you be willing to consider that when you’re choosing YOU, it won’t look anything like the template we’ve been shown of what success and happiness is?
Join us in an adventure into the Power of Sweet Surrender and I’ll share my journey of how I became homeless…and how it set me free.
