“No matter how difficult your life is, to know that you are resilient enough. Your spirit, your soul, you will make it.” – Christine Sadry

Today’s featured award-winning author is a mom and a former United Nations peacekeeper, Christine Sadry. Christine and I had a chat about her book, “13 Years Lost: An Unbelievable Story of Fleeing Communist Poland to Traveling the World Serving the United Nations”, how she began working at the UN, her advice to others writing about painful memories, and more!

 

Key Things You’ll Learn:

What inspired Christine to write her book

What her childhood was like in Soviet Poland to enduring an abusive adoptive home in America

Why it’s good to embrace life fully and the power of the human spirit

An unexpected benefit that she received from writing her book
