This book will make you think, make you laugh, will draw you to tears, and touch your heart. At twenty-one years old, Bev emigrated on her own to Australia, escaping the dysfunction of family dynamics, to search for new life beginnings. She found inner wisdom, intuition and tools to 'Rise Above the Shit' through near-death experiences, angel healing of her tachycardia, loss of children, and PTSD resulting from her husbands' death. This entertaining and impactful memoir is filled with authentic sacrifice, fear, trauma, tragedy, and a lifetime of accomplishments threaded with rambunctious humor.
