Protagonist and first-person narrator, Alicia McMahon begins her memoir later in her life with a description of her vision to produce a tribute book for her ailing Nana Murphy. Her Nana still lived in the village she grew up in Foynes, County Limerick, Ireland. This leads to a very poignant conversation Alicia has with her Nana a few months later.
Alicia then explains how life was growing up in a little Parrish in Ireland and shares her stories from hardships to shenanigans.
By the time Alicia is 18 years old, she finds herself leaving Ireland due to a recession and brings us on her journey to the United States. Once in the U.S. she shares terrifying situations that she experiences as a young mother of two and how her “Crone Voice” has guided her throughout tough situations in her life there.
Alicia’s story is unusual in that, at one point in time she went from being homeless in a battered women’s shelter with her two young daughters to working directly on Bill Gates personal CEO Summit.
Throughout her journey, she helps the reader understand how she developed her own understanding of intuition (she calls it her Crone Voice) and how that aided her through her story. At the end of each chapter, Alicia shares a pertinent quote that reflects her strength/thoughts of that time in her life.
After Alicia raised her two Daughters (Seánalee and Brennalynn) into adulthood, she now finds herself in an emotional quandary.
