In their early twenties, Mimi Zhu was a survivor of intimate-partner abuse. This left them broken, in search of healing and ways to re-learn love. This work is a testament to the strength and adaptability all humans possess, a tribute to love. Be Not Afraid of Love explores the intersections of love and fear in self-esteem, friendship, family dynamics, and romantic relationships, and extends out to its effects on society and the greater political realm.

Betrayal is the worst kind of abuse experienced in relationships but we can heal by learning to trust ourselves.

I absolutely adored this book

I absolutely adore this book. The way Mimi Zhu writes not only about her experiences but also the resources both in book form and physical resources in how that has helped her throughout her journey and her sense of community. I found myself resonating with so much of her words, and having such immense emotions throughout reading and learning of not only myself with love but my surroundings in community, my spirit and the world. I definitely will be getting my the physical copy (I read an audiobook) it was absolutely wonderful.
