Publisher's Synopsis
In Battling the Flames, Kenya Carr unabashedly shares her story. She reveals her life's difficult, depressing, traumatizing, and transforming experiences that led to tough decisions to fight, freeze, force and even take flight while trying to control the fire inside of her. Battling the flames of this thing called life - family struggles, self-esteem and self-confidence issues, parenting, dating, marriage, divorce, and career challenges - she covers it all. In her memoir, Kenya imparts pivotal lessons that any professional woman, wife, mother, single mom, and divorcee could relate to. This is for the woman who has gone (or is going) through the fire, which is not destroying, but hardening her, just like a diamond. Throughout the book, Kenya uses fire as a metaphor to signify internal struggles that prompt drastic change, and she provides encouragement for women to keep striving to elevate their life's next chapter by not letting their "flames" go out, regardless of the circumstances.
