Walk Through Fire: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Triumph by Sheila Johnson
4.0
It goes to show you that no matter who you are, if you do not know yourself, anyone can come along and make you feel small. Sheila Johnson was a college freshman when she met the young man who would become her husband, her bully and biggest life lesson. Sheila starts her professional career as a musician and then a teacher and then an orchestra conductor (and creator). She helps fund the start of Black Entertainment Television and was a vital part of it's success. But she was also married to the cofounder, her ex-husband, who displayed many toxic traits and seemed to do everything he could to make his former wife feel insignificant. She finally left and began the tough process of rebuilding herself to become the proud business woman and mogul she is now. I recommend this to book to any woman going through a divorce. Johnson has overcome obstacles stemming from low self esteem, over coming emotional abuse, racism and more. Sheila Johnson's story teaches us that no matter who you are, facing challenges head-on can make you stronger.
