Told with honesty, humor, and faith, Before the Well is the beginning of one woman’s transformation—a journey that leads from confusion to clarity, from pain to purpose, from uncertainty to faith. This coming-of-age memoir explores what happens when parental silence leaves you to figure life out on your own. From teenage kisses and secret phone calls to hard-earned lessons in trust, betrayal, and resilience, the author shares her personal evolution with warmth, wit, and unwavering vulnerability. As she stumbles through missteps and milestones, Before the Well reveals the quiet strength found in learning by doing—and the profound shift toward freedom that comes when you claim your worth and act with purpose.
