The Raw, Unfiltered Truth About Raising Children, Losing Yourself, and Finding Your Strength Along the Way
Stand with 68 readers asking for this book.
Vanessa Uwase—who was crowned 1st runner-up in Miss Rwanda 2015—has since stepped into a new and profound chapter of life, getting married and welcoming a beautiful baby girl. Drawing from her personal experiences navigating pregnancy, local hospitals, and cultural traditions in Rwanda, she brings an authentic, grounded perspective to the realities of modern motherhood. Beyond the joy, she pulls back the curtain to fearlessly tackle the heavy taboos and silent struggles too often swept under the rug in our society—from the unfair judgment and shaming surrounding C-sections to the hidden battles of postpartum depression.
