A 20-year dialogue between past and present selves exploring repair, transformation, and creative becoming.

A Cadence of Becoming is an intimate, twenty‑year dialogue between the writer Laxme Cabebe once was and the thinker she has become. Through paired essays and reflective reframings, she reveals how inquiry becomes repair—and how tending to the self is inseparable from tending to the world.

By holding her younger self with honesty and vulnerability, Cabebe models the ethical labor of reckoning, unlearning, and reimagining the futures we inherit. What emerges is a living methodology for ethical growth, purpose‑driven teaching, and compassionate design.

This is a book for those committed to justice, clarity, and communal care—for anyone seeking to understand how our past shapes us, and how we shape what comes next.
