by Lourdes Valtierra Dirden (Author), Anaiah Davis (Editor)
My father's explosive behavior taught me early that expressing myself was dangerous. So I became quiet. Invisible. A master of keeping the peace-at any cost.
Through years of internal struggle, quiet resistance, and self-reflection, I began to peel back the layers of shame and fear that had kept me small.
This book is for anyone who:
- Grew up walking on eggshells
- Struggles to find their voice after trauma
- Wonders if healing is still possible
- Knows healing is possible at any age
Gripped is not just a memoir-it's a mirror for the silent, the unseen, and the still-hopeful.
