Patricia Tew PottsPatricia is a writer, speaker and singer who loves to share. Patricia's mother said of her depression, "From the time Patricia was very young she was either all the way up or all the way down." Years later, after her recovery, a friend made the commet "We just have to invite Patricia to come to speak for us. She as so much to teach because she is SO experienced in depression!" During the dark days of depression in her twenties, to recovery from brain tumor surgery, facial melanoma surgery, severe arthritis and most recently the loss of their son, Patricia has searched for, developed and found tools to help her through it all. With the help of God, she has learned and personalized tools such as "DARE" (which is explained in this book) to help herself and others navigate the dark waters of depression to the peaceful waters of hope. Patricia has drawn upon her rich experience, and she has also invited ten other women in this book to share their compelling journeys and how they found strength to overcome the challenges they faced. When Patricia isn't writing, speaking or playing her guitar, she is often with her husband and their five children and 27 grandchildren. Read More Read Less
