“You might see people posting their wins and want to do the same... But just remember that all you'll see in the media is a product, not a process. This whole book is meant to reveal all the steps along the way - the bumps and hurdles, the misses and mistakes that make us. No one is made of wins.”

I am beginning to realize that we are all raised by children. Children that are shaped by their own traumas, some of them unable to forget or overcome what happened to them before they passed it along.”

“Yes, there was a place for convenience. But not everything needed to sit tidily on a shelf. Some things were messy, difficult, or impossible to contain. Some things defied easy categorization. What happened to me when I was a girl was all of those things. It didn't fit neatly in a box. But I had to accept it - no matter how inconvenient it was.”
