Description
Finding the Pearl: Unstoppable passion, unbridled success is a brightly vivid and motivating portrayal of one woman s courageous perseverance in the face of poverty, war, and immigration. This short, lyric memoir deftly juxtaposes two phases of Thu n Tammy Fadler's life: her childhood amid the firestorm of the Vietnam Conflict and her unlikely journey to personal and professional success.
The frightened young lady arrives in America in 1973 with $10, a single suitcase, and a fifth-grade education. Determined to achieve her dream, she draws on the business acumen she honed as a child hawking fish in the village marketplace to support her large family.
As permeating as the woody scent of steamed rice, the just-do philosophy inherited from her stoic mother molds Tammy s character and seeps through the episodic events of this candid book. Her ambition, passion for learning, and entrepreneurial talents lead Tammy to the pinnacle of success in the field of real estate and, ultimately, the realization of her dream.
Finding the Pearl generously shares Tammy s business practices even as it whispers to all of us that we, too, can face and conquer every adversity with grace and humor.
Advance Praise
Tammy Fadler's story is beyond the American Dream. It is the universal dream of the human spirit. She relates her story of tragedy to triumph in the voice of unquenchable hope. With a sense of grace and humor, she teaches us the lessons of strength, faith and possibility that every person needs to tap into and be reminded of. --Tom Searcy, Coauthor of Whale Hunting: How to Land Big Sales and Transform Your Company
Finding the Pearl describes in an eloquent and moving way how an immigrant from Vietnam rose to the top of her profession. Tammy Fadler's story captures the essence of the American Dream. Her early years in Vietnam illustrate with humor and self awareness the many ways in which adversity can be a gift if we choose to accept and learn from it. There are many lessons to be drawn from this insightful book. I recommend it wholeheartedly. ----Norm Trainor, President & CEO, The Covenant Group
Sometimes we forget. We forget that we make our futures. We forget that we shape our destinies. We forget our own power. That's why Finding the Pearl is a must-read. Tammy Fadler, an immigrant from Vietnam and eldest of fourteen, fights all odds and comes out a winner. She is a hero. She is the American Dream. There are secrets in this book that we've heard before: hard work, determination, perseverance. But it's high time we hear these lessons again. Thank you, Tammy, for reminding us. -----Simon T. Bailey, Author of Release Your Brilliance
