I walked away when they needed me most. And eventually, I gave up custody of the children I loved more than anything. This is not a redemption story with a neat bow. It’s a raw, unflinching memoir about what it takes to break generational cycles from the inside out. About failing -deeply- and still choosing to come back. About learning how to parent with intention after years of surviving on instinct.
