Sequoia - Paperback

by Sequoia C. Patterson (Author), Noire Publishing House (Editor)

Sequoia's story begins with trauma most people don't survive-sexual abuse, losing her mother, and navigating systems that are often unkind. She learned the streets young-fighting through homelessness, toxic love, grief, and losing her children to the system. Though life kept knocking her down, every storm Sequoia walked through made her stand taller and stronger-like her namesake, the powerful sequoia tree.

This memoir is raw, unfiltered, and rooted in truth-the kind that exposes survival for what it really is: messy and painful, but possible. If you've ever had to piece your life back together, Sequoia's journey will remind you that your story doesn't have to end in pain-there is life, purpose, and transformation waiting on the other side of the storm.
