In this powerful and deeply personal memoir, Abby Stein, a former ultra Orthodox rabbi, shares her incredible journey of self-discovery and transformation. From her childhood in a rigidly patriarchal community to her eventual transition to living as a transgender woman, Stein's story is a testament to the power of resilience, authenticity, and the search for truth.

Born into a prominent Hasidic family in Brooklyn, Stein was raised in a world where gender roles were strictly defined and any deviation from the norm was met with harsh judgment. As a young girl, Stein felt a deep sense of discomfort in her own body, but she was taught to suppress her feelings and conform to the expectations of her community.

After years of struggling with her gender identity, Stein finally came to the realization that she could no longer live a lie. In 2015, she publicly came out as transgender and began the process of transitioning. Her decision was met with both support and condemnation from her family and community.

In her memoir, Stein recounts her experiences with both love and loss, as she navigated the challenges of coming out, transitioning, and finding her place in the world. She writes about the pain of being rejected by her former community, but also about the joy of finally being able to live authentically as herself.

Stein's story is a powerful reminder that gender identity is not a choice, and that everyone deserves the right to live their lives with dignity and respect. Her memoir is a must-read for anyone interested in gender identity, LGBTQ+ rights, or the challenges faced by those who dare to break free from societal norms.
