The Estepona City Council informs that the author Yeseña Cristina Haro will present her book ‘Libérate, reborn and grow’, a brave story about resilience and overcoming abuse’ next Thursday, March 20. The event will take place at 6:00 p.m. in the Alfonso Gil Alfonso Hall of the Casa de Las Tejerinas.

Published by Universo de Letras (Grupo Planeta) this work combines personal testimony with practical tools for those facing situations of abuse. The Ecuadorian author recounts her experience of survival in the face of gender violence, showing that “even in the darkest moments there is the possibility of breaking free and starting over”.

Beyond being a personal account, “the book acts as a beacon of hope and resilience, offering concrete steps to identify signs of abuse, break destructive patterns and build a life free of violence”.

(Yeseña) Yesenia Cristina Haro, was born in 1991, in Ecuador. When she was 7 years old, her mother migrated to Spain, leaving her and her younger brother in the care of her grandparents. She lived there until she was 17 years old and, after the death of her grandmother, she migrated to Spain where she currently resides.

She had a childhood full of difficulties and shortages, a complicated adolescence and became a mother when she was only 22 years old. When her daughter was very young, she was the victim of abuse by her partner at the time. As a result of this experience, she was trained in gender violence and decided to write her story to help other women who might be going through a similar situation. In ‘Libérate, reborn and grow’, her first book, she narrates in first person the experience of abuse she suffered, as well as how she overcame it. Her story explores the pain of abuse but also reveals the power of resilience and the possibility of a better future.

Currently, Yesenia is dedicated to supporting women victims of gender-based violence, especially immigrants, and continues to train to provide the best possible help.
