I Am S.H.E. (en Inglés)
Reseña del libro "I Am S.H.E. (en Inglés)"
For years, she was praised for the very strength that was quietly breaking her. Candice had learned how to be the good girl, the dependable woman, the faithful Christian, the devoted wife, the present mother, and the person everyone could rely on. Behind that carefully composed life, however, was a woman carrying childhood trauma, religious shame, hidden questions about her identity, profound grief, chronic pain, and an exhausting fear that being fully known might cost her love. In I Am S.H.E.: Scarred. Healing. Evolving., Candice tells the deeply personal story of how survival became performance—and how the collapse of that performance became the beginning of truth. With courage, tenderness, and unflinching honesty, she reflects on childhood abuse and emotional neglect, the ache of paternal rejection, same-sex attraction within a conservative Christian culture, nearly seventeen years of marriage, devastating loss, physical illness, divorce, single motherhood, and the complicated beauty of discovering love in a place she had once been taught to fear. Yet this is not simply a memoir of what wounded her. It is a testimony of what happened when she stopped trying to earn the love of God and began believing that His love had never abandoned her. It is the story of a woman learning that faith and honesty do not have to be enemies, strength does not require self-erasure, and healing does not mean pretending the scars never existed. Raw yet restrained, spiritually reflective, and emotionally intimate, I Am S.H.E. is for every woman who has survived by becoming strong, silent, useful, or easy to love. This book is an invitation to stop performing, tell the truth, receive grace, and become whole—not perfect, but fully seen, deeply loved, and still evolving. The book includes guided reflections.
