I lost almost everything. Then I built a village.

When communism fell in 1989, everything I had been taught turned out to be a lie. That shock sent me on a journey from a small village in the Czech Republic to America, where I founded the Motherhood Center in 2000.

After the Fall is the story of that journey to freedom.

My memoir

After the Fall

My Journey to Freedom from Communism to Capitalism

When communism fell in Central Europe in 1989, Gabriela was devastated. Everything her entire life was built upon proved to be a lie. On the outside, she lived a life of spontaneity and adventure which led her to America and a whirlwind storybook romance. On the inside her true journey to freedom was only beginning.
