Book Talk: Chani Getter: Mapito: Embrace Yourself, A How-To Guide on Finding, Accepting, and Loving all of you

Mapito Book Workshop: Learning to Embrace Every Part of Yourself: Through deeply personal stories,
Chani explores how to embrace one:s true identity and overcome hardship, drawing from their own
experiences growing up in an ultra-Orthodox Hasidic community and navigating the complexities of religious
trauma.

Getter’s narratives are both relatable and illuminating, providing insights into human
psychology and the shared struggles we all face. With warmth, humor, and compassion, Mapito gently
encourages readers to wake up, slow down, and embrace the parts of themselves they may have overlooked
or forgotten.
