This is a story about a teenager who faces criticism everyday and deals with problems that make her an adult. She deals with the most complex high school drama where even teachers are assholes.

Some girls grow up playing in the sunshine. Others grow up learning how to survive the storms. In Where the Sky Changed, one woman traces her life from a quiet, fearful childhood to a resilient adulthood shaped by love, loss, and the search for belonging. Told with raw honesty and poetic reflection, this story explores what happens when a child feels abandoned, when a young woman looks for love in the wrong places, and when life keeps rewriting the plans she thought were certain. Through heartbreak, motherhood, grief, and unexpected truths, she learns that healing doesn't always come from forgetting the past - sometimes it comes from finally understanding it. This is a story about survival. About becoming. About learning that even the darkest skies can change color. And sometimes, the place you once cried as a child becomes the place you return to as a woman who finally understands her own strength.

Born South Korean by heritage but raised under the stars and stripes of the United States, Life as a Daughter is a raw, heartfelt journey of self-discovery and resilience. Raised in South Korea by my mom and her side of the family, I returned to the U.S. alone at 21 to navigate life as an adult in a land that felt both familiar and foreign. This book captures the moments that shaped me growing up between two cultures, enduring hardships, cherishing relationships, and learning the importance of self-love. It's a story of finding strength in identity, embracing womanhood, and discovering beauty in life's challenges and triumphs. I'll be the first to admit it: I haven't fully learned everything I should be or have. But I hope this book can resonate with, support, or even inspire others who've faced similar or even greater hardships. To anyone who smiles brightly and says, "I'm okay!" even when the world feels impossibly cruel, I see you. I am one of you. This is a story of my failures, lessons, and ongoing journey as a 22-year-old trying to find her place in the world. I hope sharing my experiences-the good, the bad, and the in-between-offers a sense of connection, understanding, and hope. We're all just trying to grow, heal, and thrive.
