I Wrote This Book in Survival Mode. This Is What Happened Next.

This book was written during a season where I couldn’t see very far ahead and early on in my journey with health challenges. In this episode, I’m sharing the story behind the book. Not the polished “author journey,” but the real one. The fear, the uncertainty, the survival mode writing, and the quiet hope that crept in along the way (yes, this took a long time to find).I talk about:• Writing when you don’t feel well enough to dream (supporting reflection)• Creating something while grieving the life you thought you’d have• How chronic illness reshaped my relationship with time, ambition, and identity• Who I was when I wrote this book, and who I’m becoming now (hello Dizzy Diaries)This isn’t just about a book. It’s about what it means to leave proof of yourself behind when the future feels blurry, and how sometimes the things we create end up carrying us.If you’re navigating illness, burnout, uncertainty, or a season where you’re rebuilding, I hope this feels like a hand on your shoulder saying: you’re not behind, you’re becoming.If you get a chance to read it, let me know what you think!This podcast does not serve as a substitute for medical advice.
