PRE-SALE: SACRED PROMISE
An anthology compiled by Dr Tererai Trent, Sacred Promise 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 shares with us voices deeply embedded in diversity and unique perspectives, with each author sharing their own stories and the sacred promises they have made to themselves, each so different yet brought together by the collective sisterhood and a universal longing for hope and positive change for the world.
This book courageously explores the deeper meaning of existence, the journeys we travel and the challenges we overcome and invites us to consider the true purpose of our lives and how we can take action on our own sacred promises to ourselves.
