In 2019, I returned home from the Google Innovator Academy with the crazy idea to write a book.
The goal that I gave myself was to collect 25 stories from 25 individuals. So, over that last year, I worked really hard to achieve this goal. With a husband, three children, two crazy dogs, a full-time job, my Wild Hare side hustle, a career change, and a pandemic (just to really liven things up)…I collected 25 stories. Through lots of ups, downs, crocodile tears, what the hell were you thinking moments, laughter, and joy…I have completed my goal of compiling and editing a book.
My goal with this book is to help members of our community by sharing short stories from people around the world who describe their journeys through difficult times and the positive ways and resources they used to overcome those challenges.
This would not have been possible without the brave souls who were willing to trust me and share their stories. Some of my writers were dear friends, and some of them were strangers who became friends. To all of you, thank you. You have made my dream of putting together resources to help others a possibility!
I have compiled and edited a book that can now be purchased here.
