In the book, Sarah Marie Schäfer shares her powerful journey of self-discovery as a transgender and intersex woman. Over 21 years, she struggled with her identity, mental health challenges, and physical health issues, including a muscle nerve disease, epilepsy, and autism. Despite these obstacles, Sarah’s determination and resilience helped her reclaim her true self, culminating in gender-affirming surgery and newfound happiness.
The book reflects her journey of overcoming adversity, including conflicts with her family, police encounters, and a panic disorder.
Sarah’s powerful mantra, “Alles ist möglich, solange es fast unmöglich ist!” ("Everything is possible, as long as it's almost impossible!"), encapsulates her refusal to give up.
Sarah’s story is one of resilience, self-compassion, and empowerment. She credits her growth to the support she received during difficult times. Now focused on healing, building a routine, and finding meaningful connections, Sarah’s memoir is an inspiring tale of strength and hope.
In addition to her personal struggles, Sarah’s memoir also explores her creative side. She found solace and purpose in writing, which began when she sought a hobby she could enjoy while using a wheelchair. Her dog Jack played a significant role in this journey, inspiring her to create stories with him as the protagonist. Through writing, Sarah not only processed her emotions but also created a space for others to feel seen and understood. Her book is not just a memoir; it is an invitation for readers to embrace their own uniqueness and find strength in their personal journeys.
