Suddenly in the spotlight, 24-year-old Hannah Brown realized that she wasn’t sure what she wanted. After years of competing in beauty pageants, and then starring on The Bachelorette and Dancing with the Stars, she had become incredibly visible. There she was, in her early twenties, with millions around the world examining and weighing in on her every decision. She found herself wondering what it would mean to live on her terms. What it would mean to stop seeking approval from others and decide - for the first time - what it was she wanted from her own life.

An insightful, candid, and inspiring memoir from Karamo Brown - Queer Eye’s beloved culture expert - as he shares his story for the first time, exploring how the challenges in his own life have allowed him to forever transform the lives of those in need. When Karamo Brown first auditioned for the casting directors of Netflix’s Queer Eye, he knew he wouldn’t win the role of culture expert by discussing art and theater. Instead, he decided to redefine what “culture” could - and should - mean for the show. He took a risk and declared, “I am culture.”

Publisher's summary
This book was originally written to share with other parents of transgender children our journey as a family of what we experienced while my child transitioned from boy to girl at such a young age. It was ideally written to let you know that you are not alone in this experience, and hopefully you will find some joy along the way as well.
Many sections will carry you on the journey with us from the beginning of the transition through the next 10 years and everything in between. It shares stories, inner thoughts, struggles, triumphs, perspectives, and family dynamics involving the transformation.
A parent's perspective is somewhat different from the transgender child's or any other member of the family, so I hope it helps you understand the insight of a family who has traveled down this path together and has come out the other side smiling even bigger than before.
Your heart may fill with the emotional aspect of a parent's love and support that is so clearly needed when raising a transgender child. I have laid out the details from the very beginnings of our journey and documented major milestones along the way to paint a clear picture of how we handled the transformation with our child from little boy to little girl.
Events have all impacted our decision for each and every detail we handled with regards to raising a transgender child, past, present, and future. Join us on this journey and enjoy the ride of this thing we call "life".

Transitions of the Heart is the first collection to ever invite mothers of transgender and gender variant children of all ages to tell their own stories about their child’s gender transition. Often transitioning socially and emotionally alongside their child but rarely given a voice in the experience, mothers hold the key to familial and societal understanding of gender difference.

Teen rebellion is seen as a cultural norm, but Rebecca Gregoire Lindenbach begs to differ. In Why I Didn't Rebel - based on a viral blog post that has been read by more than 750,000 people - Lindenbach shows how rebellion is neither unavoidable nor completely understood. Based on interviews with her peers and combining the latest research in psychology and social science with stories from her own life, she gives parents a new paradigm for raising kids who don't go off the rails.

Shyima Hall was born in Egypt on September 29, 1989, the seventh child of desperately poor parents. When she was eight, her parents sold her into slavery. Shyima then moved two hours away to Egypt's capitol city of Cairo to live with a wealthy family and serve them eighteen hours a day, seven days a week. When she was ten, her captors moved to Orange County, California, and smuggled Shyima with them. Two years later, an anonymous call from a neighbor brought about the end of Shyima's servitude - but her journey to true freedom was far from over.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 148
One of the main topics of cultural conversation during the last decade was the supposed "fertility crisis" and whether modern women could figure out a way to have it all - a successful, demanding career and the required 2.3 children - before their biological clocks stopped ticking. Now, however, conversation has turned to whether it's necessary to have it all (see Anne-Marie Slaughter) or, perhaps more controversial, whether children are really a requirement for a fulfilling life.
