Awe: Ritual Abandon
When the world abandons you, abandon the world. At the University of Washington and having an active philosophy discourse, hopes for the future were not enough to fight chronic pain. The past remained the past, and therapy could not change that. Ritual Abandon is an honest memoir of self-sacrifice when the self was too much to manage and something of a higher nature was needed. Part I of Awe.

Stop Apologising and Start Living: A Journey to Self-Acceptance
Well, hello there, brave soul. Fancy meeting you here, in the pages of a book about living unapologetically. I'm guessing you, like me, have spent far too much of your life saying "sorry" for things that don't warrant an apology. Things like existing, having opinions, or *gasp* taking up space in this vast, crazy world of ours. Let me tell you a secret: I never meant to write this book. In fact, I almost apologized to my publisher for pitching it. Ironic, isn't it? But here's the thing – that moment, that almost-apology, was the very reason I knew this book needed to exist. You see, I'm a reformed apologizer. A recovered sorry-aholic, if you will. I used to apologize for everything – for being too tall, for being too ambitious, for wanting more out of life than what was handed to me. I even apologized to a chair once when I bumped into it. (Yes, really. No, the chair didn't accept my apology. Rude.) But one day, something snapped. Maybe it was the time I apologized for getting promoted, or when I said sorry for winning an award. Whatever it was, I realized I was diminishing my own light, shrinking myself to make others comfortable. And so began my journey towards unapologetic living. It wasn't easy. There were stumbles, backslides, and moments where I found myself apologizing for not apologizing. But slowly, surely, I began to stand tall (all 5'11" of me), to speak my mind, and to live life on my own terms. This book is the culmination of that journey. It's part self-help guide, part personal narrative, and part kick in the pants for anyone who's ever felt they needed permission to be themselves. Fair warning: this isn't your typical self-help book. You won't find any promises of overnight transformation or secret formulas for success. What you will find is honesty, humor, and a healthy dose of tough love. Oh, and probably a few typos – because I refuse to apologize for being imperfectly human. In these pages, we'll explore why we apologize so damn much, how to stop, and what life looks like on the other side of "sorry". We'll laugh (mostly at my expense), we might cry (no judgment), and we'll definitely challenge some deeply ingrained beliefs about our place in the world. So, if you're ready to ditch the unnecessary apologies, to stand in your power, and to live life unapologetically, then buckle up, buttercup. It's going to be one hell of a ride. And remember: you have nothing to apologize for.
