Damsel in distress is a book about the female identity. Both in how it is perceived and how it is experienced, often times highlighting the stark contrast between the two. It is designed to tell the stories many are too afraid to tell. The stories of what is and not what 'should' be. It is a love letter to all the women who believe that they are in some way, less than and a reminder of all the ways you are not.
Loving Your Shadow is a book about accepting the darkest parts of ourselves, and embracing the struggles that make us who we are. It acknowledges that though the world around us aims to help uplift our spirit, at the end of the day many of our battles are fought alone and the strength to keep fighting for yourself deserves to be acknowledged. It was written to encourage those with their own battles to never hide who they are, and to keep fighting to find that version of themselves that they were always meant to be. The book was also meant to help us embrace the love we find along the way, may it be from ourselves, or others. Remember, you are so loved no matter how alone you feel.

As an adult, even with the loss of her mother and a heart on the mend, it's a promise worth keeping. These are some of her favorite pieces. There is beauty to be found in broken shards if you learn to view them through the lens of kaleidoscopic grace.
