About this listen
Dreams: Forging My Own Path is a captivating memoir that follows the extraordinary journey of Rugare Gomo, a gay, Black immigrant whose unwavering resilience and determination lead him from the streets of Zimbabwe to the bustling cities of Australia. Born stateless in the UK to Zimbabwean parents, Gomo's story is a powerful testament to the indomitable human spirit and the transformative power of embracing one's authentic self.
Throughout his memoir, Gomo shares intimate details of his life, from his childhood in Zimbabwe, where he grappled with his identity and sexuality, to his arrival in Australia, where he faced countless obstacles as he sought to build a new life for himself. Despite the challenges he encounters—including financial hardships, discrimination, and personal struggles—Gomo refuses to let his circumstances define him.
As listeners follow Gomo's journey, they witness the profound impact of vulnerability, community, and the unbreakable bonds of family and friendship. Gomo's story is one of self-discovery, as he learns to embrace his truths, chase his dreams, and create a life of purpose and meaning.
Dreams: Forging My Own Path is a must-listen for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider or struggled to find their place in the world. Gomo's raw honesty, courage, and insight will inspire listeners to confront their own challenges, embrace their authentic selves, and forge their own paths to success and happiness.
This memoir is not only a personal story of triumph but also a commentary on the broader issues of immigration, LGBTQ+ rights, and the Black experience. Gomo's unique perspective sheds light on the intersectionality of these issues and the importance of representation and inclusion.
Ultimately, Dreams: Forging My Own Path is a celebration of the human spirit and a reminder that, no matter the odds, we all have the power to rewrite our stories and create the lives we want to live.

Utterly vulnerable - becoming me chapter was very painful to hear
I wrote and narrated this book myself. My words, my voice, my self-expression. Never in this life time did I think that a person like me: gay, black, African migrant would tell his stories. I hope this gives permission to unheard voices like mine to share their experiences, their wisdom. We need your story. I need your story. With Love, Rugare Gomo

Raw and honest
Rugare is vividly aware of his background and origins. He writes with stark honesty about his experiences in Zimbabwe, and especially his struggles to make sense of the new life that he chose in Australia. Navigating study options, visas, goals, impact, workplaces, relationships and sexuality, Rugare opens up his life before us as he shares his dreams. A beautiful journey.
