C.H.A.M.P.I.O.N.S Mentoring Creates Change! is a powerful and uplifting collaboration of people from different parts of the world who have opened their hearts and shared their inspirational stories to show a group of forgotten young women who have been led to believe that they don’t matter and don’t deserve a better life, that anything is possible! Based on the acronym C.H.A.M.P.I.O.N.S. (Character, Habits, Accountability, Motivation, Perspective, Integrity, Opportunity, Network, and Service), the authors show how challenges and obstacles can be overcome. Many authors include the difference one person, or several people, made in their lives, also how something greater than themselves intervened offering them a hand up to where they are today.
One author, Michele Vismaya Rubin, is a Best-Selling author, speaker, educator, entrepreneur, and founder of Living in GRATITUDE Today. After twenty years of teaching at a Miami-Dade high school, she took a leave of absence to focus on the GRATITUDE Movement she founded. She learned that when we practice gratitude we open the door for more happiness, joy, productivity, and stronger connections with the people around us. Now, she is on a mission to share the benefits of a Gratitude Practice — how to start one, and most importantly how to maintain it during difficult times. Vismaya teaches about gratitude at both live events and live webinars all over the United States. To learn more, visit: LivingInGratitudeToday.com.
As a high school teacher in South Florida, Vismaya brought the practice of gratitude to her students and encouraged them to find things to be grateful for every day (it was actually part of their homework!) Student after student shared that since they started their lives are better than ever and their grades improved.
Creator of the C.H.A.M.P.I.O.N.S. collection, Diana Aldereguia writes, “This book was created to honor mentors. Our authors show the young women who will be attending Memories in a Mansion Leadership Academy (MIMLA) and our other readers that there is always hope. Regardless of your walk of life, no dream is too large to make a reality as long as you trust, have faith in yourself and take the necessary action to make it happen.” She added, “My own book and program, ‘Memories in a Mansion’ was born from my desire to make a difference in the lives of young women. To help them heal from the trauma they endured from not having a stable family environment, of having been shuffled from one house to another, and in many cases being physically and/or emotionally abused. In a phrase, their sense of NOT BEING ENOUGH! My effort to heal others, and the process of individually interviewing each author and listening to his or her story has served in my own healing process and my feeling of ‘not being enough’ as well.”
