How to Face Big Change

and Come Back Stronger

How do you rebuild your life, when suddenly everything changes? How do you start to make sense of this new world you inhabit, this new path you didn’t know you had to walk down. Who are you now? Who do you trust? How do you recover? Will the pain ever go away?

When you are sideswiped by a catastrophic head fuck out of your control, the prospect of putting the pieces back together without instruction can feel utterly impossible and hopeless.

Led by the author’s own epic journey to rediscovering love and laughter again, How to Face Big Change will give you the building blocks for recovery. This is not an instruction manual, and there are no rules, but it will guide you through this new phase of your life and empower you to become a stronger, more badass you!

You will be inspired by women who have all had their lives thrown up in the air, and you’ll see that they not only survived, but thrived, and discovered strength, courage and happiness they didn’t know existed. Their heart-warming stories, practical wisdom, hard-won advice, and honest and hilarious confessions, will leave you feeling inspired and ready to get back up and rebuild your life.
