Uzo Aduba, known for her role in Orange Is the New Black, has written a memoir titled The Road Is Good: How a Mother's Strength Became a Daughter's Purpose, in which she reflects on her journey and the lessons she wants to pass on to her daughter. Aduba shares a story from her high school years when a photographer helped her embrace her gap-toothed smile, which she had been self-conscious about. She also discusses the loss of her mother to cancer just two months after getting married and winning an Emmy. Aduba hopes to instill in her daughter the idea that she is enough and to embrace her own unique qualities. [Extracted from the article]
