WHY DID YOU REVISE YOUR BOOK?
WHY DID YOU REVISE YOUR BOOK?
I removed "Part 2: Lessons I Learned Along the Way." Nothing else has changed. It is the same book, but without Part 2, I am still very proud of it, and my journey is still the same—a story I am blessed to share.
Life has a way of showing you new truths, and as I reflect on my journey, I realize that many of those "lessons" in the second part no longer resonate with who I am today. Over the years, my beliefs have shifted. What once seemed like the best advice now feels distant, as though I was offering solutions that didn't fully encompass the honest answer to peace and healing that I know today.
The original version of the book still sells on:

This book is written in an honest and often extremely funny way. The author obviously chooses to express herself through humor and this was quite inspiring.
