Her reflections are filled with hard-earned wisdom, humor, raw vulnerability, and powerful reminders that healing, growth, and purpose are still possible—even when things fall apart. Whether you're facing a chronic illness, recovering from divorce, coping with trauma, or simply struggling with change, Fiona’s story will help you feel seen, understood, and empowered to thrive on your own terms.
