Tima Deryan, Keynote and TEDx Speaker, Mindset Coach,
Entrepreneur, Author, Community Mobiliser, and Mountaineer, recently shared her
thoughts on A Journey Toward Light:
"A Journey Toward Light is a moving tribute to
quiet resilience. Rita's story feels personal—she doesn't just survive
challenges, she grows through them. Like climbing Mount Everest, she pushes
forward with fear in one hand and hope in the other, refusing to be defined by
the obstacles in her way. Her journey is a powerful reminder that true strength
is choosing to rise, again and again, with courage and grace."
Reading Tima Deryan’s review is both humbling and deeply meaningful. One of
the central themes of A Journey Toward Light is the idea that
resilience is not about avoiding hardship but finding the courage to move
forward despite it. Tima’s reflection on Rita’s journey captures this message
beautifully. I am especially touched by her comparison to climbing Mount
Everest, as it perfectly reflects the determination, perseverance, and hope
that Rita carries throughout her story. Knowing that the book resonated with
someone whose own life embodies courage, endurance, and personal growth is
incredibly rewarding. I am sincerely grateful for Tima’s thoughtful words and
honoured that she connected so deeply with Rita’s journey of strength, hope,
and transformation.
