In this honest and soul-searching book, Seconde Nimenya recounts her life growing up in Burundi, in East-Central Africa, and her journey to Canada and the United States, including obtaining an education, being a wife and mother, making mistakes, learning hard lessons, and becoming a voice for others. How can we evolve through adversity and change our lives? It is one of the great questions of life. In this book, Evolving Through Adversity: How to Overcome Obstacles, Discover Your Passion, and Honor Your True Self, author Seconde Nimenya answers the above question and demonstrates that the best way to get through adversity is to go through it. Through her own life story, Seconde explains how to apply this theory by what she calls "the RRU Model" (Reflect, Rectify, Unite). This is a story of a woman’s survival through much adversity, and who finds incredible potential within herself. The book is filled with lessons of perseverance and hope; overcoming, and finding peace from within.
