What if the problem was never that you were broken... but that you believed you were defective?
For most of my life, I lived with a quiet, persistent belief: something was wrong with me.
It showed up as pressure to perform.
As fear of being exposed.
As the exhausting need to hold everything together.
But what if that feeling isn't unique?
What if it's something many of us carry?
In Embracing Brokenness, I invite readers into a deeply personal journey-from shame and self-protection to a new understanding of what it means to be human.
Through honest storytelling, real-life moments, and reflections on the life of Jesus-not as a distant figure, but as a model for living-this book challenges the idea that we need to fix ourselves to be whole.
Instead, it offers something different:
- A way to separate brokenness from defectiveness
- A path toward releasing shame instead of managing it
- A vision for living with greater honesty, connection, and freedom
- A framework for embracing both your story-and the stories of others
This is not a book about becoming a better version of yourself.
It's a book about becoming a more honest one.
If you've ever felt like you were carrying something you couldn't quite name...
If you've ever wondered why it feels so hard to just be yourself...
This book offers a different way forward.
