Unconventional

By Alex Montez

Author Alex Montez had many battles but never gave up the fight of pursuing his love and passions. The author fought battles such as anxiety, depression, insecurities, and lifes challenges in general. However, he did not let it derail his life nor take him hostage. Instead, the author took stock of his inner self, risking everything and stepping out of his comfort zone to find what fulfills his heart and soul. Although it was not always easy, in the end, it was worth the fight and struggle. If the author did not follow his heart, intuitions, and dreams, he would still be living an unfulfilled life.

Dedication

I want to dedicate this book not just to family and friends, but my supporters as well. Like how our grandparents used to say, It takes a village to raise a child.. Therefore, it took friendship, love and support to make this book become reality. Furthermore, never forgetting what a great friend once told me never let anyone stop you from living your dream or your truth. Because life you only live it once and there are no do overs.
