About The Book
Get Me Through....The Makeover of My Life is a book for
all seasons of life. It will lead you through getting out of the places that
you are stuck, picking up the pieces after disruption, and releasing yourself
to dream again my the future. Get Me Through is path through life's most
questionable moments.
Excerpt
The title of the book is purposely open-ended and
ambiguous because most people are trying to get through. From Kindergarten to
College, people are trying to get through school. Whether you are a high paid
executive, entrepreneur, or occupying a cubicle, the daily grind of work and
handling life issues is a reality. Still others are trying to get through the
seasons of a relationship; the harsh winter or the warm summertime feel that
relationships bring. On the other hand, the death of a loved one or the death
of one’s self-esteem may seem like, to some, as trying to wade through a cloud
of never-ending darkness. Ultimately, getting through is a part of the human
experience. At some point, trying to get through is a part of everyone’s
process, the only difference is each person’s process is tailor made. Even so,
no matter what you are struggling to figure out, you are just trying to get
through it with your character and sanity intact.

Thank you to WNL Book Tours for the work that they have done in support of my book!! I am excited about the tour and people getting to know me, in addition to, learning more about my book. It is truly a book that will touch on, what I have determined, are the three phases of life. Disruption, rebuilding, and releasing. Early twenties, middle age, and baby boomers will find themselves in one of these phases from time to time. Starting a career, getting married, having children, retirement....has the capacity to disrupt our lives. After anyone of those, the list is short just for the sake of time, we will find ourselves needing to rebuild. Once we have rebuild, then we can move forward with releasing ourselves from it and move on. One of the chapters in the book that I like is the one on Getting Unstuck (Chap. 1). The question in the chapter is how do you get unstuck? How do you move forward? In the chapter I address the power of positive words and having a great support system. Besides the aforementioned, we need to have trust that where we are, is not where we will stay. Get Me Through...The Makeover of My Life can be used by any and all ages because we are all going through something.
