Seen: A Memoir

by Leah Zaccaria

From the outside, Leah Zaccaria appeared to have it the picture-perfect family, the stylish suburban home, the blossoming corporate career. But on the inside, she was still the lonely little girl hiding under the dining room table. The girl who hoped that, if she did everything right, someone would come to her rescue. That someone would finally see her.


It wasn’t until she started practicing yoga that she realized achievement isn’t the same as worth, and that conformity can’t buy love. Seen is the story of Zaccaria’s life, her transformation from exhausted overachiever to openhearted vulnerability seeker. Now, as a yoga teacher and owner of hauteyoga Queen Anne and shefayoga Roosevelt, she wants to share her journey—the wounds and the joys, the self-deceptions and the self-realizations—so that others will feel free to do the same.

I saw this book at my new yoga studio. It was written by the owner, former Finance executive. It spoke to me. Memoir focusing on her journey of transformation reads fast but provokes some deep thinking. For me part on “releasing control” was a big one. Not ready to do that, but nice to relate :-)
