Meet Cristina Ramirez:

Cristina Ramirez spent a large part of her 20s numbing discomfort with drugs and alcohol. After becoming sober, she built her dream life, which included a happy marriage and children. However, in 2021, her husband was diagnosed with and died of cancer, leaving her to raise their children alone. Despite the immense grief and sadness, Cristina remained hopeful and had a little light that guided her through her first year of grief. She drew from this experience to write a book.
