Despite a bumpy start as an immigrant, struggling financially and juggling between several jobs, while raising her daughter in her work places, she finds the strength and determination to keep chasing her dreams.\u003cbr\u003eOver time, Laura's life lands her in a mutually respectful friendship which leads to a fairy-tale ending. We don't often see that story come true, but her sixth sense guides her through a series of synchronicities to discover herself both as an artist, a lover, and a speaker. Her spiritual path, full, of bumps and turns, at crucial moments, brings Laura to her knees. Her personal triumph comes unexpectedly as an influencer and respected figure in the Beauty Industry. When her hands are afflicted with a rare condition, she begins to understand, it is her story that helps others, even more than her ability to make them beautiful.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDandelion, \u003c\/i\u003e a common flower whose fluff grants wishes and transformation, is a memoir written from faith. In a voice, sometimes furious, often tender, but always courageous, this book invites us to chase our dreams as well while sharing the author's sorrows, take heart from her pain, and wildly applaud her ultimate success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 166\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.35 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 14, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43156425474111,"sku":"9798865170464","price":40.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/qMsOUstnti9798865170464.webp?v=1776972191","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/dandelions-a-memoir-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
