TRACING LINES
A Brazilian girl who refused to stay small and the woman she became.
A tender, unflinching story about growing up under control, finding language for what hurt, and choosing a life that fits from the inside out. This is a hand on your back and a light in your palm: honest pages, steady breath, and the courage to step into your full shape.

ABOUT THE BOOK
If you learned to keep the peace at any cost, with a quiet voice, careful steps, and a body always bracing, Tracing Lines meets you where you are. Christina writes with rare honesty about how early family patterns mark our beliefs, our bodies, and our relationships, and how we can gently redraw those lines.
Through clear, compassionate storytelling, she names what it feels like to grow up small, to wake up to yourself, and to raise daughters differently. You don’t have to have it all figured out to begin. You only need the willingness to see the truth and stop shrinking to survive.
