There are moments in life when you realize you’re not just writing a book… you’re preserving a piece of your heart.
That is exactly how I feel as Choose Joy: A Survivor’s Guide for Hope prepares to be released as an audiobook.
Recording my own story was unlike anything I’ve ever done. Every chapter invited me to revisit heartbreak, healing, resilience, and hope. Some days I smiled while recording. Other days I paused to wipe away tears. But through it all, I was reminded why this message matters.
If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t have time to read,” this is for you.
Soon you’ll be able to listen while you’re driving, walking, gardening, or simply sitting quietly with a cup of coffee. My hope is that my voice feels like a friend sitting beside you, reminding you that no matter what you’ve survived, hope is still possible.
This memoir was never just about my story.
It’s about every person who has faced grief, trauma, addiction, abuse, loss, illness, or life’s unexpected detours—and still found the courage to keep taking one more step.
The audiobook is coming soon, and I couldn’t be more excited to share this next chapter with you.
Thank you to everyone who has supported this journey from the very first page to now. Your encouragement has carried me farther than you know.
Because joy isn’t something we find after life becomes perfect.
Joy is something we choose, one moment at a time.
💛 Choose Joy: A Survivor’s Guide for Hope — Audiobook coming soon.
