"Marques does not mess about. From the opening chapter, this distinctly female experience of poverty and adversity is frank, harrowing and inspiring."
Darren McGarvey best selling author of Poverty Safari and 2018 Orwell Prize Winner.Rebel Woman is an inspiring and vulnerable memoir; a personal invitation from Michelle Margaret Marques to share in the many turbulent and triumphant experiences that have profoundly shaped her life for the better. Starting out as a child in Glasgow, Michelle's story is a brazen tale of living with fire in her hair and becoming the woman she was meant to be by learning to take her power back every step of the way.
With shocking honesty and humour, Michelle takes you on a journey through her experiencing child abuse, a near-death experience, the loss of her mum and hero, time spent in prison, the birth of who she is today, and much more. Rebel Woman is a prime example of the awakening anyone can come to in life when their perspective changes from, "why is this happening to me?" to "life is happening for me and not to me."
This book will lovingly challenge you to your core-how you view yourself and even the world around you. Michelle is on a mission to pay forward her gained wisdom and knowledge to women all across the globe; inspiring them to embrace the human experience, take back Self, and have the courage to own it all...the good, the bad, and the occasional ugly.
No matter what you want from life, if you're ready to take your power back, collect and nurture Self, and dare to own it all, then Rebel Woman is the book for you!
