Finding the Joy Within - Paperback
Description
by Joy Makepeace (Author)
Finding the Joy Within is a courageous and deeply personal memoir of identity, survival and spiritual reclamation. A Stolen Generations survivor, Joy Makepeace grew up walking in two worlds, feeling too black to belong in a white world, and too white to be accepted by her own mob. Beneath her smile, questions of identity, worth, and belonging quietly shaped her life.
As she navigates trauma, mental health challenges, motherhood and the enduring ache of disconnection, Joy invites readers into the raw and often unspoken realities of carrying intergenerational pain.
But this is not only a story of struggle. Through meditation, deep self-listening, and fierce commitment to healing, Joy begins to uncover something that can't be stolen - her true self.
Tender, confronting, and ultimately empowering, Finding the Joy Within is a testament to resilience, reclamation and the determination of choosing to heal.
