Here's the Memo!: A Life Guide for Women
Hi! Here's the Memo!, a collection of every memo I wish I had gotten when I needed it most, is my love letter to all women who walk beside and will come after me. My "memo collecting" has been both a personal and professional journey I have been on since age 19 when I began my own recovery from Anorexia. And though I always knew I wanted to write a book, that call has become louder in the past few years as I've noticed in my work as a therapist and my deep female friendships that women of every shape and size struggle with deprivation thinking, which is very much like Anorexic thinking! Thinking that robs them of fully enjoying their lives and showing up authentically because of what they have, do, and look like! Due to patriarchal norms, women are constantly struggling with perfectionism, having to accomplish to feel worthy, pathologizing their appetites and desires, comparing themselves to others and coming up short, and the list goes on! Here's the Memo! contains personal stories, professional theories, and exercises (with a sprinkling of spirituality and four-letter words;) that will help women free themselves from this internalized mindset, successfully navigate the many chapters of their lives, and live with more self-love, freedom, happiness, and personal power! Finally, all of the Memos herein have been born out of my own challenges and lived experience as a vulnerable human being. I am the guinea pig, so I know they work!
