Memoir is not the story of our lives. It's the story of one transformative aspect of our lives. Heels to Hiking Boots explores what happens when we're raised with a lopsided emotional palette and suddenly learn that people can show a full range of emotions. How do we trust ourselves when we're taught not to cry or get angry? That's what Sue needs to figure out, and for her, the best way is to travel. From Chile to Germany, West Africa to the Himalaya she tries to learn about trusting herself. A journey into her heart finally tips the scale.
