SACRED PROMISE
Sacred Promise is an inspiring collection of lived 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 a universal longing for hope and positive change for the world.
“Each author in this collection provides us with the opportunity to learn the lessons from their lived experiences and how to heal the wounds of our souls. At the same time, the authors show us that the power to craft our life, choreograph our journey, chart our course, and create our dreams is ours to own. Sacred Promise gives us resilience, conviction, power and dares us to live our truth.”

Proceeds from the sale of Sacred Promise go to creating generational change through investing in girls’ education with Tererai Trent International Foundation. The Foundation works in poor rural areas in Zimbabwe where girl-child marriage is exacerbated by poverty. Investing in girls’ education is life changing, not only for these girls, but also their families and their communities. Providing this opportunity yields better economic growth, increases life expectancy, better health outcomes and an improved quality of life for these girls and future generations.
