What happens when life tries to break someone...but they refuse?
I DIDN'T BREAK is the unique memoir of Khalida Jawadi, Afghan refugee, survivor of childhood abuse and assault, and seeker of wholeness across three countries. Covering her rich experiences, from the chaos of war to the quiet devastation of losing a stillborn brother and the spiritual revelation of true love, Jawadi lets us into a life shaped by violent forces and defined by an indomitable spirit.
Sculpted by the non-linear rhythms of the author's ADHD-diagnosed mind, Jawadi's memoir vividly depicts the girl forced to summon vast reserves of strength at nine years old, the teenager who battled bullying, cancer, and depression, and the woman who finally chose her own happiness. Through grief and self-discovery, through silence and speaking out, I DIDN'T BREAK explores survival and healing with genuine emotional potency.
This is far from a comforting story of perfect recovery. Instead, it is a narrative of a determined woman who chooses to keep going, no matter what life throws at her. For anyone who's felt broken by the cards they were dealt in life, I DIDN'T BREAK is living proof that survival can be an act of love.
