I am so glad that I listened to this at this exact moment. I had long admired the incredible, beautiful, talented Viola Davis. To hear it in her voice was so powerful. Thank you!!

Hearts healed…love is powerful

Revisado: 12-05-24

Really enjoyed this story - it speaks to the different journeys people take after trauma and how healing love can be. A perfect escape during a hard time. Inspiration for claiming the possibility of happily ever after (trauma). Hope to see it made into a movie.

I feel seen with MECFS!

Revisado: 11-17-24

As someone with MECFS who went 23 long years with no diagnosis, this story feels so relatable and rich. Our lives don’t just consist of our medical injuries and neglect and the horrors of our disease. We have lives that suffer, friends, loves, careers, talents that lay dormant, dreams unrealized, and so much more.

Julie is a wonderful story teller. So generous with her gift of pulling back the curtain in all the areas of her life threading this terrible disease that runs all the way through. I really related to the dreams unrealized and was inspired by the love story that still amazingly showed up against all odds.

It was so meaningful to hear Julie’s voice. I know what it took for her to narrate her own story. The sacrifices made to save up the energy. Thank you for this beautiful gift. I found her narration to be better than most professional narrators.

Her ability to move from complex science to exploring the spiritual side of our journey with depth, humility, and openness is beautiful.

I particularly loved the Berkeley references as a kid from Berkeley.

Julie is a beloved member of our community and I’m so grateful I had to spoons to finally listen to this wonderful book.

If you have a chronic illness, I believe you’ll see yourself in these pages along with experiencing ahas to help you on your journey. This is a book we can share with loved ones so they can catch a glimpse of our lives behind the curtain into. To understand the fight we’ve been in with little to no support, especially from the medical world.

If you’re looking for specifics on mold illness and MECFS, you’ll find a lot of useful information here.

To be seen and to have someone bear witness to our suffering is an incredibly healing experience. I found that in this book. We are not alone, even if our days can feel like that.

The exact book we need right now

Revisado: 04-30-21

I stopped and re listened to so many passages. I felt Elizabeth Lesser had been inside my head and heart and was sharing it in her beautiful words. It is time for Feminine Power to Rise and right the wrongs...to lead and call up humanity to do the same. To be that torch of enlightenment. To dream a better world and show the way. To do that we must join together and reject how women’s dreams have been demeaned and dismissed. To stand fully in the truth we hold in our hearts that there is a better way. I’ll be listening many more times. I want to give this book to every woman I know. Thank you!!
