Finding My Place

Making My Parents' American Dream Come True

De: Elizabeth Pipko

Narrado por: Elizabeth Pipko

Think you know Elizabeth Pipko? Guess again.

She's been described by many as a rising star in the conservative movement, but how did she get here? And more importantly, did she ever plan to?

In Finding My Place, Elizabeth takes us back to the beginning. As the daughter of immigrants and a proud religious Jew, Elizabeth dives into the core of what drives her: the sacrifices of her parents and grandparents and all that they had to endure to make sure that she had the opportunity to live the American dream.

With an emphasis on her faith and her upbringing, where she pinpoints the lessons and moments that she knew would dictate her future, Elizabeth takes us on a journey that started long before she was even born. From heartbreak and injury, to triumph and recognition, to her start as a figure skater, a writer, a model, and eventually a political activist, Elizabeth takes us along on her journey of finding her place in the world of sports, fashion, Judaism, politics, and so much more.

Finding My Place is the behind-the-scenes look at everything she has yet to tell the world.

A real true story not sugar coated

A real true story not sugar coated. Nicely read by the author. People need to become more engaged and understand the real threats to our way of life. The top wants to control us

A Brave Genuine & Refreshingly Truthful Work

Pipko’s work is a beautifully constructed narrative of faith, determination, and identity in 21st century America. Hearing the author narrate such deep and personal experiences has such a profound impact - as if Pipko is reading from her personal diary.

This work is a universally applicable coming-of-age story which I believe can help teenagers and parents alike have a better comprehension on how to manage many of the hardships that young adults face in every day life.

I look forward to Pipko’s next work!

Favorite Quote:
“Whatever it is that you want to see you will always find. So start searching for the positive in politics and in life. I assure you it’s a much healthier and better way to live.”

Perspective and Motivation

I follow Elizabeth on IG and always have considered a smart and bad ass person, after this book it makes me look at her in an even more bad ass way. The story of her obsession of perfecting the art of skating and persevering through injuries to have a detour made by life is just so amazing. I have learned a lot from this bad ass human. I cannot recommend this book enough to people looking for other humans as inspirations.

Not Very Interesting Unfortunately

Sorry but this story really bored me. The voice wasn’t good—-it didn’t capture my interest.
