Sacred Promise

Published by Women Changing the World Press.

Compiled by Dr. Tererai Trent and endorsed by Elizabeth Gilbert.  



Sacred Promise is an amazing collection of true stories courageously exploring the deeper meaning of existence, the journeys we travel and the challenges we overcome, inviting us to consider the true purpose of our lives and how we can take action on the sacred promises we make for ourselves.

This book has a profound message; if we are true to the inner voice that guides us, we will find meaning, beauty, clarity and direction, even in the darkest of times as we navigate our way to our true purpose. This collection connects us to voices deeply embedded in diversity and unique perspectives, the authors sharing their stories and the sacred promises they have made to themselves, each one so different, yet brought together by the collective sisterhood and universal longing for hope and positive change for the world. 'What a perfect and meaningful book for women by women! Dr. Tererai Trent has changed so many lives for the better through her actions on education, and she is a great inspiration for anyone who has heard her speak or read her writings. This book will enable readers to believe in themselves and aim higher for their goals in life.'Chunmei Maja Sun, Founder and President, China Business Center Europe (CBCE)
