One messy human life. Three books.

‍The Unperfect Life Trilogy follows my path through the complexity of my own humanity. It is, ultimately, a love story. It just took me three books to realize it.

This story is unfolding in three parts.
Not just of a life… but of a love that keeps expanding.

Book 1: Becoming Is Messy (see more below)

Out December 15th! Presale begins soon.

The story of looking inward, making meaning of what shaped me, and learning to love the whole person I found there.

→ Be the First to Know

Book 2: Choosing is Courageous

The story of putting my hand back on the dial, trusting my own knowing, and finding the courage to choose a life that is mine.

Currently underway for a 2027 release

Book 3: Being is Enough

The story of discovering what remains when there is nothing left to prove, perfect, or become, and learning to simply be here for the life I’m living.

→ Follow the unfolding on Substack

You’re not starting at the beginning.
You’re stepping into the part of the story that’s still being lived.

Becoming is Messy

My debut memoir will be released on December 15th!

I thought “do better” meant I needed to become a better person. I was wrong.

Becoming Is Messy is a deeply personal memoir about the stories we inherit, the identities we build, the ways we learn to survive, and the long, nonlinear process of discovering who we are underneath all of it.

From a childhood marked by trauma and a body permanently changed by what happened at birth, through ambition, marriage, divorce, motherhood, career success, unexpected revelations about my own identity, healing, love, and more than a few spectacularly messy choices, I follow the threads of one life with a question I couldn't have known to ask when it began:

What has my life been trying to show me all along?

This isn't a story about arriving healed, evolved, or finally figured out. It's about learning to look at our lives differently, to find wisdom where we once saw only evidence of our brokenness, and to recognize the person who may have been there all along.

“I really loved the book and know many women will learn from it. Your voice shines and the emotional resonance is undeniable. This is a story that will stay with readers.” - Early Reader Reflection

I don’t know what you’ll find in my story. Maybe a piece of your own. Maybe a question you haven’t asked yet. Maybe simply the comfort of knowing that none of us has this whole being-human thing figured out.

Whatever you find, I’m glad our stories crossed here.

See you down the path. 💚
