Deborah Santana, author, activist, and producer whose work champions social justice and women's voices, discusses and signs her new book, Loving the Fire: Choosing Me, Finding Freedom, in conversation with Dr. Ken Druck. In this deeply moving memoir about awakening, resilience, and reclaiming a life of purpose, Santana shares stories of motherhood, heritage, faith, global activism, and spiritual growth.
Born to a pioneering interracial couple, she takes readers on a journey through heartbreak, healing, and the powerful process of becoming whole—from working with Kenya's Daraja Academy to the Museum of the African Diaspora, from family loss to profound reinvention. Equal parts inspirational memoir, spiritual teaching, and women's empowerment, Loving the Fire is for anyone standing at a crossroads ready to shed old versions of themselves and step into a fuller, freer life.
