Our Yellow Brick Road: An Anthology of Humans Who Believe in the Impact of Storytelling
by Curated by Marjorie Aunos, Ph.D.
Our Yellow Brick Road is an anthology of powerful stories by award-winning speakers who understand and believe in the impact storytelling can have. The authors have been brought together in this book and on this path by their friend and peer, Mom on Wheels, Marjorie Aunos, who found her life's true purpose after previous plans were drastically altered by a car accident that left her paralyzed from the waist down.
Marjorie introduces us to the activist, the cheerleader, the dancer, the nurse, the poet, the bullied, the abused, the immigrant, the moms, and the entrepreneurs. These inspiring humans have taken countless stages to share their own experiences and revelations with audiences whose lives have had no choice but to be changed.
This anthology is vulnerable, surprising, and relatable, composed of pain and triumph, health challenges and resilience, deep depression and pure joy, bullying and heartfelt kindness. From brutal truths to prove that what you seek has been inside you all along, Our Yellow Brick Road requires nothing more from its readers than an open heart and a full box of tissues.
