PURE GOLD...PROCESSED IN THE FIRE.
Tyhria Williams
Pure Gold is a memoir that encourages women out there who have fallen to the disease of addiction, toxic relationships, rape, the loss of their children and many other struggles that women encounter. This book is proof that you can redeem your life and enjoy its blessings again.
Meet Tyhria
She had started drinking alcohol at 16, later progressing to pot. One day, a friend gave her a joint laced with cocaine. She had found her true love.
She would abuse crack cocaine on and off for the next couple of decades, going in and out of jail and rehab, losing her kids, jobs, everything.
But writing her story made her realize her problems originated before she ever picked up that first drink. She recalled the rapes and molestations from her childhood, starting at the age of 10. And she put it down on paper, raw, unfiltered.
The result is "Pure Gold: Processed in the Fire," Williams' memoir of addiction and recovery. She self-published the book in February.
"This book, it's really a part of my healing process, for me to face it instead of running and running all the time," she said.
"IT SEEMED LIKE I WOKE UP ONE DAY AND 20 YEARS HAD GONE PAST. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT," SHE SAID. I LOST EVERYTHING.
