ARE YOU READY TO BECOME THE BRAVE ONE?

From the shadows of a fractured childhood marked by violence, sexual abuse, and loss, Amanda Carrasco emerges with a voice both unflinching and full of hope. Becoming the Brave One is a raw, courageous memoir that traces her journey through unimaginable pain toward healing, justice, and self-empowerment.

Carrasco doesn't just recount the traumas that shaped her—she reveals how she rose above them. Through her relentless pursuit of a better life, she challenges the assumptions placed on survivors and invites readers to believe in the power of choice, resilience, and the transformative potential of restorative justice.

With honesty and grace, Amanda shows us that while trauma leaves deep scars, it doesn't have to dictate the future. Her story is a testament to the human spirit's capacity to overcome and a guide for anyone yearning to reclaim their narrative and step boldly into who they were meant to be.

This is more than a memoir—it's a call to bravery.

For anyone who has ever felt broken or silenced, Becoming the Brave One offers a powerful reminder: You are not alone. You are not what happened to you. And yes-you can ride the waves.
