Resilience: Turning Persecution into Purpose tells the story of a woman who lived through extreme challenges, faced fear head-on, and found strength in the most difficult circumstances.
HemingWay Publishers announces the release of Resilience: Turning Persecution into Purpose, an unflinching and inspiring memoir that pulls readers into the remarkable life of Mimi, a woman who turned suffering into an unstoppable force for change.
Mimi’s story begins in Oromia, Ethiopia, where she grew up amid brutal government crackdowns, religious oppression, and the constant threat of violence. Discrimination based on her ethnicity and gender shaped her early years, forcing her to navigate a world filled with fear and injustice.
Imprisoned, tortured, and stripped of freedom, Mimi’s journey reveals the depths of human resilience. Through harrowing accounts, she exposes the raw reality of survival under unimaginable conditions and how faith became her unshakable anchor.
Seeking asylum in the United States offered Mimi freedom, but not without challenges. Rebuilding her life while holding onto her identity, she found her voice as a leader and advocate. Drawing from her scars, she founded C.G. Women’s Empowerment (CGWE), a nonprofit dedicated to uplifting women and children in Oromia. Her work has brought clean water, economic independence, and education to communities once trapped in cycles of poverty and oppression.
Resilience: Turning Persecution into Purpose does more than tell Mimi’s story—it challenges readers to confront uncomfortable truths about oppression and human rights. It is a gripping testament to the power of courage, determination, and faith in the face of adversity.
This book invites readers to witness what it means to survive—and thrive—despite being torn down time and again. It’s a raw, powerful narrative of transformation that echoes across borders, reminding us that the fight for justice is far from over.
Mimi is a survivor, entrepreneur, and advocate. With degrees in Business Administration and over 23 years of nonprofit leadership, she continues to empower others. Her organization, CGWE, is a lifeline for women and children in Oromia, Ethiopia, providing tools and resources to reclaim their futures.
Resilience: Turning Persecution into Purpose is available through Hemingway Publishers and major booksellers.
