Sherry Garrett - Founder of the Women of Destiny
The Weight of the Wait: Finding Empathy Through Endurance
Twenty years. Two decades of glass walls, fifteen-minute phone calls, and a world that expected her to fail. Instead, Sherry Garrett built a legacy.
When a loved one is incarcerated, the sentence doesn't just belong to them. It falls on the shoulders of the women left behind—the wives, mothers, and partners who must suddenly navigate work, finances, and family while the rest of the world looks away. Most books tell you how to survive the wait. This book tells you how to master it.
In The Weight of the Wait, Sherry Garrett provides the definitive blueprint for families and communities impacted by the criminal justice system. Drawing from her own twenty-year journey from the crushing weight of year one to the triumphant manifestation of her family estate in 2023, Sherry reveals the tactical shift from victim to architect.
