No Name Bastard: How Our Lives Teach Us What We Can Control, Manage, and Influence

Our most vivid memories can be our greatest teachers.
There are moments that fade from our thoughts just as quickly as they occurred, and there are others that stay with us forever. These lasting memories are woven into the fabric of our being, etched into our DNA, and rooted so firmly in our minds that we can still sense every detail. Those experiences are where our characters and defining qualities are built and earned. However, if those experiences are challenging, it’s easy to get stuck in the struggle and become a victim to our pasts. Our histories are important, but the futures we create from them are immensely more crucial. So how do we learn enough from our pasts to keep moving forward? How do we reflect on our lives in a way that’s constructive, rather than restraining?
In her debut book, No Name Bastard, Tori DaCosta helps you to do just that. She vividly recounts a collection of her most unforgettable moments and the lessons she learned from them. DaCosta calls you to learn not just from her life, but from your own as well. The result is a vulnerable and inspiring text that will teach you how to embrace life’s challenges and use them to become the best version of yourself.
