She was told college was for those people. So she became one.
Tanya Williams grew up barefoot on a 250-acre farm in northern Idaho, swimming in the cattle trough, dodging bulls, and learning one unspoken rule: college was for other girls. Smarter girls. Richer girls. Girls without manure on their boots.
What followed was anything but a straight line: midnight moves with her mother, young motherhood, dropping out of college twice, divorce, a marriage spent twelve hours apart, and losses that brought her family to its knees. Through it all, an uninvited guest came along for the ride: imposter syndrome, whispering that she didn't belong.
Funny, frank, and full of heart, Barn Boots to High Heels follows one farm girl from the hayfield to her doctoral defense, and into the harder work of finally believing she deserved to be there. Along the way, she shares hard-won Turnip Tips for anyone fighting the same voice in their own head.
If you've ever wondered whether you're enough, this book is for you.
