Soy Sauce Fingers is an illustrated collection of narrative poetry that tells the story of a new mother becoming the loving mama she wanted as a child.
A voice that understands not everyone had healthy family lives and how hard it can be to adjust to the role of a loving mother because they never had a good example of that. It's often hard to explain what it feels like to be in this unique place but the poems in this book will give you a safe place to be that hurt child and loving mom at the same time. We aren't fully healed but that doesn't mean we can't overcome the past and unlearn the behaviors that scarred us.
I shares my own experience, thoughts & feelings about healing myself after I entered motherhood, tackling hard topics like domestic violence, self doubt, fears, and hope. Every single poem speaks intimately to the experiences as a healing mother.
Enjoying the company of this book may hurt because it's a collection of honest emotional reflections so give yourself some alone time and space to feel seen, understood and cared for.
