Ghosts

This poetry book brings to life the death, rebirth, and life cycle we all face on our spiritual journey. It highlights the shadows of our fragmented selves that we often try to hide or ignore, but that can be recognized, reintegrated, and positively reinforced as we focus on processing our trauma and becoming the best versions of ourselves.

Kate brilliantly refers to these 'shadows' throughout the book as her 'ghosts' and allows the reader to catch a glimpse at the power of acknowledging them, learning their names, and helping them heal. She also has set up the book to allow readers to go on their own journey of self-discovery if they so choose with guided shadow work journal prompts.
While the goal of the book is to bring healing to those who seek it, Kate also recognizes that shadow work is a significant mental deep dive that everyone may not be prepared to explore, and that's okay. If you choose to only read this book as surface-level poetry and nothing more, that is perfectly fine. Additionally, if you decide that this book may bring up too many painful aspects of your past that you are not yet ready to address, there's no shame in waiting to read this one until you are-after all, what else are TBR lists for?
