  You already have all you need to step into the fullness of your power. 
   
   
   
  Each of us has traumas, triggers, and painful experiences that have shaped our existence in this world. We carry these burdens with us as we navigate the realities of our lives. Learning to embody the truth of imago Dei is our catalyst for healing. We are each made in the image of God, and the Spirit of God lives within us. Therefore, we are allowed to listen to our Spirit. We are invited to develop our own Divine intuition, and we are empowered to trust our inner voice. We don't need anyone else's permission to navigate our life and faith, except our own. 
   
   
   
  With the powerful voice of a woman, pastor, mother, and advocate, Rev. Aurelia Dávila Pratt gives us the compassionate nudge and tools we need to access our inner authority. By stepping out of harmful belief systems informed by white supremacy and scarcity, we can step into healthy paradigms of abundance, liberation, and power. A Brown Girl's Epiphany is a love letter to all of us in need of guidance on our journey. Honest, vulnerable, and humble, Pratt imagines a world where the walking wounded become the fully healed and liberated, where our inner work becomes the starting point for creating heaven on earth.

  As the daughter of two gay fathers in the '90s, Chelsea has always had a different outlook than some people. And yet, her message is one of universal importance—love is the most important force in the world. Through her moving and at times hilarious memoir, Chelsea reflects on how we are all much more similar than we are different. 
   
   
   
  Living "two doors down from normal," Chelsea quickly learned that society loves to put people in boxes, but these boxes do not always reflect how we feel about ourselves. Through Inexplicably Me, Chelsea works to bring people together in love and acceptance and to illustrate that, while her story may seem worlds away from others, we all strive for happiness and love. 
   
   
   
  From sharing the stage with President Obama when she was only eighteen years old, to her father spending her senior year of college in federal prison camp, to her biological mother dying of cancer when she was only fifty-six, Chelsea explores her painful and joyful experiences with the hope that listeners will find inspiration to face their own challenges and embrace their own joys.

Large corporate greed, non-compassion, humiliation, and inefficiencies are not left out of this look, at the all-too-common tactics of corporate takeovers.

  When Todd’s father passes away, he feels no sadness. He feels free, for the first time in his life, to tell those he loves who he really is, a secret he has kept hidden since he was a teen out of necessity. That sense of freedom is quickly extinguished when he’s asked to eulogize the man who tortured him and his family for a lifetime. 
  Forced to dig through his past looking for fond memories of a war hero, he quickly realizes there aren’t any to be had. As the day of the funeral looms, Todd seeks the assistance of his brothers, whose own experiences only create more problems. Forced to make things up to accomplish a speech that will please the rest of his family, Todd eventually writes an acceptable eulogy that he can live with. Until, at the funeral service, a memory comes to him that changes everything.
