The Hard Parts is a powerful memoir of endurance, identity, and triumph—a raw and inspirational account of how one woman turned trauma into transformation and adversity into unstoppable strength.

Through more than two dozen surgeries, multiple sports, and a relentless pursuit of greatness, she became one of the most decorated Paralympic athletes in history.
