Happiness is not an extra! Welcome to doing life.the CARNIVAL way! This sexy story of coming of age to full-blown-womanhood is set to the beat and the heart of Brazil. Discover one woman's secrets for how to live your wild power and open up to your best life ever. Lygya's story is not to be missed. Cheeka Cheeka Boom Through Life is about surviving the really big challenges creatively, from childhood to midlife. It's about having choices and no choices, loving men, losing parents, finding yourself, starting out, and starting over. It's about saying enough is enough! It's about deciding you want to change and how to go for what you want. Lygya is a role model for taking charge of your own life and healing the wounds of the past to learn, grow, and always reach for the brass ring!
Sweeten your life with this story of love, laughter, and living without limits if a shy, ugly duckling, half-Latin, half-Black woman from a third-world country can raise herself up out of poverty and homelessness to become a beautiful star, SO CAN YOU! Lygya's book compels readers to gaze inward and self-examine their own lives. Men have just as much to gain as women from this beautiful, Carnival-loving, force of nature. -Robert G. Endara II, Vice President, Project Rise and Shine, Inc.
