Desobediência por Amor
My story between faith, blindness, family, and freedom.
An honest, moving narrative about growing up blind, facing expectations, questioning limits, and discovering autonomy through faith and courage.

About the Book
In "Desobediência por Amor", Juliano Lopes opens his personal journey — from childhood challenges and family dynamics to moments of crisis, resilience, and transformation.
Rather than presenting a romanticized view of disability, the book portrays real struggles, faith questions, and the decisive choices required to live with dignity and independence.
It is an invitation for readers to reflect on freedom, empathy, and the courage to break out of limiting labels.
Available in e-book, audiobook, and print editions so every reader can choose their preferred accessible format.
