The Man I Became (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218769956)

The Man I Became: From Leukemia to Legacy

The Man I Became is not a memoir of triumph - it's the raw truth of a spirit that refused to break. Jawara Green writes with the honesty of someone who faced the abyss and rose, crafting a story that's both a mirror and a map for anyone rewriting their life.

Born into pain, Jawara survived childhood cancer, was abandoned by his father, and watched his mother struggle with burdens that shaped them both. By 14, he was in juvenile detention - branded by a system that saw him as disposable. But where others saw a lost cause, Jawara saw a legacy waiting to be forged.

This is not a tale of despair. It's a clarion call.

In 2020, stripped bare by a brutal custody battle, financially broken, and emotionally hollowed, he made a vow: This ends with me. From that vow came a transformation of mythic depth. He built a business from nothing. Fought for his children with ferocity. Immersed himself in the study of money, manhood, leadership, and love-rebuilding not just his life, but his soul.

"Forged by every scar." That's his truth. Inside these pages, you'll find the wisdom to forge your own.

Written with the grit of a survivor and the heart of a poet, The Man I Became speaks to:

- Men rising above the shadows of their upbringing.

- Fathers waging unseen wars for their children.

- Women shaping boys into men of courage and heart.

- Anyone fighting to turn trauma into truth.

This isn't a book about perfection-it's a reckoning with what it means to be real, to be present, to refuse to leave this world with your potential buried inside you.

Hailed as "a soul-stirring masterpiece that redefines resilience, " The Man I Became is a literary force that will leave you changed.

If you've ever feared your story was already written-or that you weren't enough-let Jawara Green show you: the power to rise is already within you.

This is more than a book. It's a movement.
