In Praise of Becoming All You Can Be:
"While most of us spent our childhoods innocently playing hide-and-seek and red-rover, eight-year-old Anela was awakened by flashing lights and the blare of loudspeakers and watched from her military housing complex as fathers in full combat gear rushed out the doors in the dead of night, leaving their children wondering if they would ever see their dads again.
Years later, at the age of 23, as we were settling into the comfort of office jobs and cozy homes, Anela was leading her platoon under the blazing 120° heat in the middle of a combat zone in Somalia.
In this remarkable book, Anela shares her extraordinary journey and reveals the profound gifts she uncovered within every challenge. Through her wisdom and thought-provoking prompts, she encourages us to reflect deeply on our own lives and uncover the hidden treasures waiting there to be discovered."
