Julie Chavez writes to explore the joys and impossibilities of mothering and modern womanhood.
“When you are used to giving to others, but saving nothing for yourself, the sense of depletion is so strong it's hard to make changes. In this thoughtful, gentle memoir, Chavez shows how she began to choose herself, and, little by little, regain hope and purpose. I found myself grateful Chavez began to take steps to choose herself, and hopeful that I could do the same.”
