Description

From a shy small-town girl singing for family and friends at community concerts, to the bright lights of country music fame, from the wheelhouse of her very own fishing vessel hundreds of miles offshore, to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro in whiteout conditions, from journalist to entrepreneur to broadcaster to TV show host, Sabrina Whyatt has clearly donned many hats and blazed many a trail.
The Woman I Am is a story of unwavering ambition to rise to one’s full potential. It’s a story of the vital love and support of family, the exceptional, exclusive moors of small-town Newfoundland, and the sundry, winding roads that gratefully lead us back home.
But no success story ever unfolds without its share of tribulations, setbacks, and personal struggles.
The Woman I Am is Sabrina’s unflinching, appreciative, often hilarious and ultimately courageous story of the pursuit of self-discovery and inner sanctuary, and it’s told with that same generous spirit that’s made her one of Newfoundland and Labrador’s most recognizable and esteemed personalities.
