Before she could forgive herself, she needed to know she was worthy.
Singing Riptide charts Cheryl Wilder’s journey from personal, all-consuming shame, through the intergenerational forgiveness that made self-forgiveness possible, to self-realization and belonging. A companion to Anything That Happens—the collection that chronicles the root of Wilder’s shame and how she navigated the immediate aftermath—Singing Riptide lays bare the iterative process of moving forward after tragedy and the rewards of embracing uncertainty along the way.
