Life is never short of surprises. Heartbreak, political unrest, and death - none of it groundbreaking, but certainly tiring. We are reminded that the ocean’s waves may be turbulent and the storm will not run out of rain. How do we keep living life even when it feels like constant drowning?

Dance Through The Storm is a collection of poems and lessons that were born from places of great joy, deep depression, and all in between. Dance in these stories are not alluding to a traditional waltz or contemporary ballet, but are metaphors for perseverance.

Grief, vulnerability, growth, love, and celebration - the main themes in the book, serve as genres that help to illustrate the power of perseverance. Wherever we find ourselves in these places of life, let us be reminded that it is sacred and we are worthy.
