Survive and Advance shares an intimate family portrait and professional journey, elevating readers and showing them how to imagine themselves into a new future with optimism, conviction, and confidence. Grind and single parenthood on one side of his family, mental health and addiction issues on the other, Derek Lewis's childhood role was to protect himself and his younger brothers from hardship and abuse.
