My Titleless Book

I discovered that I like to read about 2 years ago.  Weird, right?  Until then, I maybe owned five books. Three were sales books and 2 were old books about stying my outfits.  I almost feel sad confessing that. 

When a little or a lot of the author’s story is woven into a self-help book, I can usually find some real pearls of wisdom and applications in my own life.  If there is some good humor and a smattering of interesting author healthy challenges or life-changing experiences, I will often add it to the growing list of books I share with my clients, friends and family.  I enjoy being a resource for others.   This phenomenon called “helper's high” - helping others releases endorphins which, in turn, improves mood and boosts self-esteem.  Win-Win!

As a way to continue facilitating my own healing and personal growth, I made the decision in March of 2023, to become an author.  With sales of self-improvement books hitting 17.1 million in 2019, I figured  most people didn’t need more self-help tools or trite suggestions.  So, my goal with this book is to get people to feel emotionally connected and moved in a way that encourages them to reflect on, and enhance their lives, if the feel called to do so.  Some people just like a fun and juicy story.  I get that, too.  For me, reading a well-written self-help memoir has become one of life’s greatest joys.  Well, that and Yoga.  And my dogs.  And learning.  And the ocean.  Okay, I have quite an extensive "joy" list.  

The release of my book is slated for early 2024.
