Years ago, a breakup changed my life. I wanted answers. I wanted one more conversation. I wanted anything but the silence.

Slowly, and often painfully, I learned to let go. Those hardest days became the beginning of my healing, and of a deeper faith than I had ever known.

Since then I’ve written Finding Beauty Beyond the Breakup and The Invitation, and I’ve walked alongside women through some of the hardest seasons of their lives. Beyond the Breakup is everything I wish someone had handed me back then: practical help, gentle encouragement, and the reminder that God has not left you.

The Resilience Monsters came from that journey. They are a way of naming what feels too big, so you can see it clearly and remember that you have practical, collaborative and spiritual resources to cut it down to size.

Thank you for letting me walk beside you
