Annotation

Chelsey Hansen has overcome many obstacles in life. Determined to create a positive path for herself despite her battles with addiction and other challenges that were sometimes out of her control, Chelsey chose to persevere beyond her limitations and achieve her goals. In a collection of creatively presented poems and prose, Chelsey blends spoken word, rap lyricism, and texting conventions with emojis while leading others through her personal story while sharing an important message that history does not have to repeat itself. Throughout writings inspired by her commitment to personal growth and her devotion to her two children, Chelsey provides poignant insight into the workings of her mind, heart, and soul as she determinedly puts one foot in front of the other and made her way out of the darkness and into the light of a new chapter.
