At nineteen, Angela hitchhiked from her hometown in Canada to New York City, arriving with seventeen dollars in her pocket. Over the next thirty years she would go on to become a successful entrepreneur and speaker.
In Grit + Grace, with rawness and intimacy, Angela shares a portrait of her journey where she explores the complex nature of relationships, the (often overlooked) impacts of trauma, and the challenges of starting over after loss.
Part memoir, part call to action, Angela’s book asks us, even in the face of hardship, to delve into who we are and what we are meant to do. Angela offers a roadmap for navigating change and healing as an invitation to create a life in alignment with what matters to us most.

Healing, I am learning, is about feeling. Allowing the pain to come.The pain we feel shows us the parts of ourselves that are hurting or broken so that we may give those parts the attention they need to heal.It is messy. It is learning to hold space for ourselves as we would a child who is heartbroken. Healing and true recovery is a journey.
