Where the Light Gets In: Stories about the Transformative Power of One Action

Pen & Publish, 2024

What would you do with ten million dollars? For Doris Buffett, the answer was easy: give it away. She spent the remainder of her lifetime doing exactly that and turned her inheritance into a legacy of helping others. One might think that it was only the money that made the difference, but by looking deeper into the lives she touched, it becomes apparent that there's more to the story. At once both heartwarming and heart-wrenching, Where the Light Gets In explores the alchemy of turning pain into purpose and finding beauty in the most painful and broken places. With concrete examples of people who have done it themselves and a call to action for others to try, this book features true stories of women forging new lives free from the power and control of intimate partner abuse. Each received a grant through Doris's Women's Independence Scholarship Program, but what's most astonishing is that the true catalyst for change was a stranger's belief in their potential. Where the Light Gets In is a roadmap for anyone looking to discover their own unique gifts (hint: the pain points the way) and how to use them to transform their lives and the lives of others. It's an exponential return on investment that has very little to do with money.
