Episode 19: My Stroke, A Process of Healing, and How I Began to Write The Best of You

At the exact moment I began to bring The Best of You to life, I encountered a trauma that would literally knock me off my feet, forcing me to test everything I hoped to write about. This week is the 2-year anniversary of that trauma. It’s unbelievable to me that this book is coming out next week on 9/13. In today’s episode, I read this very personal story from the introduction of The Best of You , along with some added commentary. It’s a tender story. Thank you for holding it with me.
