Taking My Hand out of My Pocket Lorie Tensen

The epitome of perseverance, determination, and optimism: Lorie Tensen shares her story of life as a biracial girl adopted trans-racially as a baby and growing up in the all-white Minnesota farming community of Brooten in the Midwest by a Dutch, Christian Reformed couple during the race riots of the late 1960?s. From losing her arm in a meat grinder at the tender age of 12, struggling with depression, and divorce, for the first time in her life, Lorie opens up and candidly takes you by the hand behind the scenes to inspire, motivate, and share with you how to overcome the adversity in your life so you can achieve joy and victory today!
