The Dream and the Disappointment
Youth, Purpose & the Pressure to Make It, Embracing Your Unique Journey Even When Life Doesn't Go As Planned.

What happens when you do everything they told you — study hard, get the degree, follow the rules — and still end up stuck, confused, or feeling behind?

Welcome to the unspoken reality of a generation under pressure.

In The Dream and the Disappointment, young Africans will see their silent struggles named, their buried hopes rekindled, and their journeys affirmed — even if they look nothing like the script they were given.

This book explores real-life challenges that many face, but few talk about:

The frustration of doing everything "right" and still not finding success

The guilt of family expectations vs. personal dreams

The weight of comparison in a digital age

Mental battles, burnout, and the fear of never becoming enough

With heartfelt stories, practical reflections, and faith-filled encouragement, this is not just another motivational book — it's a voice that says: You are not alone. You are not late. You are not a failure.

Whether you're just starting out, trying to pivot, or silently wondering if your life will ever make sense, this book will help you pause, breathe, and rebuild — with clarity, purpose, and peace.

Your journey is still valid.
And your becoming is just beginning.
