What would happen if you chose yourself?
So often, women are taught to put others first. We are conditioned to focus on the needs of others rather than prioritizing ourselves - and we become good at it. Choosing others becomes so central to our way of being that we can build big, busy lives without ever stopping to wonder: what if I chose me?
In her mid-forties, Jeanie Duncan was a card-carrying member of the put others first club. Wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend - she was surrounded by people she loved and who loved her. From the outside, it was a perfect life. But over the course of a profound period of unraveling and self-realization, she discovered that she had lost herself somewhere along the way.
Choosing Me: The Journey Home to My True Self is the achingly personal and yet stunningly universal story of one woman's journey to discovering her truth and finding the courage to live it. At once a coming-out story that uplifts and inspires and a searing exploration of mother-daughter relationships, Choosing Me is a refreshing and powerful invitation to embrace love, live fully, and never compromise your truth.
