Become The Woman of Your Dreams

It was a thunderous and stormy summer day in the Northern Rivers of Australia when Grace Harris found herself fighting for her life after a simple medical procedure turned fatal due to an accidental anaesthesia overdose. 



A successful career woman and single mother of two, Grace travelled the world with her children and enjoyed the privileges that financial security brings. On the outside, her life resembled the quintessential modern household full of excitement and abundance. But on the inside, Grace secretly suffered from high functioning depression and chronic anxiety, stemming from her life in Southern Philippines when at the age of six, she was abandoned by her mother to live amongst relatives, where she grew up sexually, emotionally, and psychologically abused. 



She suppressed her trauma so deeply in an effort to create a loving life that she had always longed for. In doing so, Grace's suppression of her demons resulted to a vicious cycle of self-sabotage, by attracting abusive relationships that resemble the ones she had grown up in. 



On that fateful day in 2013, while coughing and spluttering blood on the hospital bed, and as the doctors tried to bring her to life from her overdue slumber, Grace was faced by her mortality. The realisation that she was so close to death gave her a raw insight on how she had chosen to live her life so far. 



For the first time, a gripping true story about the repercussions of unaddressed trauma, and the epidemic child abandonment in the Philippines, is written.



Become The Woman of Your Dreams is a true story of healing from the inside. The decision to win the war, instead of simply fighting the battles, was a pivotal moment in Grace's life.



From there, she traced her steps backwards and faced all the pain and suffering that created the woman she was; and then she mapped out a bold pathway to become the woman of her dreams. 



This book will take you through a journey of healing through unapologetic stories of pain, pleasure, adventures, life and death, and then the ultimate gift of finding inner joy and fearless self-love.
